Abstract: | A new leukotriene 5(S)-hydroxy-6(R)--γ-glutamylcysteine-7,9--11,14--eicosatetraenoic acid (leukotriene F4) was isolated after incubating leukotriene E4 with γ-glutamyltranspeptidase and glutathione. Leukotriene F4 induced contractions of the isolated quinea pig ileum and was less potent in this respect than leukotriene E4. |
