Corticosteroid suppression of lipoxin A(4 )and leukotriene B(4)from alveolar macrophages in severe asthma

BACKGROUND: An imbalance in the generation of pro-inflammatory leukotrienes, and counter-regulatory lipoxins is present in severe asthma. We measured leukotriene B(4 )(LTB(4)), and lipoxin A(4 )(LXA(4)) production by alveolar macrophages (AMs) and studied the impact of corticosteroids. METHODS: AMs...
