Abstract
Lipoxygenases are lipid-peroxidating enzymes that are implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of inflammatory disorders 1-3, membrane remodeling 4-6 and atheroma formation 7-9. Formation of 15-(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid [15-(S)-HETE] and lipoxin (LX) A4 in human leukocytes, mediated by 15-LO dependent catalysis of arachidonic acid, likely represents a component of endogenous pro- and anti-inflammatory influences that ultimately regulate the extent and severity of inflammatory reactions 1-4, 10.
