BLT(1) signalling protects the liver against acetaminophen hepatotoxicity by preventing excessive accumulation of hepatic neutrophils

Leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) is a potent chemoattractant for neutrophils. Signalling of LTB(4) receptor type 1 (BLT(1)) has pro-inflammatory functions through neutrophil recruitment. In this study, we investigated whether BLT(1) signalling plays a role in acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury by af...
