Leukotriene B(4) is essential for lung host defence and alpha-defensin-1 production during Achromobacter xylosoxidans infection

Leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) is essential for host immune defence. It increases neutrophil recruitment, phagocytosis and pathogen clearance, and decreases oedema and inflammasome activation. The host response and the role of LTB(4) during Achromobacter xylosoxidans infection remain unexplored. Wild-typ...
