Abstract:
Leukotriene B
4 (LTB
4),one of the metabolites of arachidonic acid via5-lipoxygenase (5-LO),plays important role in some inflammatory diseases as one of the most potentchemotaxis factor. A radio-ligand binding assay was set up and the characteristics of LTB
4 receptor onguineapig splenocytes membrane were studied.At 25℃,the
Kd was found to be 1.55 × 100-9mol·L
-1 and the
Bmax was 2.59×10-13 mol·mg
-1 protein. The assay established was evaluated bynordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA) as positive control.
