Opis

Application

Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase human (LTA4H) is a drug target for anti-inflammation, and for cancer prevention and therapy. It is also suitable for screening inhibitors of Leukotriene B4 synthesis. LTA4H is used to study allergic asthma and airway hyperresponsiveness .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Leukotriene A4 Hydrolase human (LTA4H) is a bifunctional zinc metalloenzyme that converts LTA4 into Leukotriene B4, and also demonstrates aminopeptidase activity. Leukotriene B4 is a lipid chemoattractant that plays critical roles in inflammaton, immune responses, host defenses against infections, and lipid homeostasis. Inhibition of LTA4H in a mouse model decreases LTB4 in the airways and attenuates airway inflammation and airway hyperreactivity through modulation of T cell and dendritic cell function .

Physical form

Supplied as a solution in 100mM Tris, pH 8.0, containing 20% glycerol and 100mM potassium chloride.
