The 5S, 12S-dihydroxy-6,8,10,14-(E,Z,E,Z,)-eicosatetraenoic acid, a product of double dioxygenation of arachidonic acid by lipoxygenases, undergoes severe decomposition during gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) analysis of the trimethylsilyl ether methyl ester derivative. The decomposition product was studied by GC-MS and identified as

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4), a potent chemoattractant for leukocytes, is catabolized by human neutrophils via omega-oxidation. Neutrophil microsomes are known to oxidize 20-hydroxy-LTB4 (20-OH-LTB4) to its 20-oxo and 20-carboxy derivatives in the presence of NADPH. This activity has been ascribed to

The generation and metabolism of leukotrienes (LTs) from polymorphonuclear granulocytes of four polytraumatic patients on stimulation with the Ca-Ionophore A 23187 were studied by high performance liquid chromatography. In contrast to healthy donors the concentration of LTB4 within the supernatant

A method for the analysis of omega-carboxyleukotriene B4 and omega-hydroxyleukotriene B4 in human colonic carcinoma homogenate is described. The hydroxy groups of the leukotriene metabolite were acetylated by acetic anhydride, and the mixture was partially purified on a Sep-Pak C18
