Cloning and characterization of the 5'-flanking region for the mouse phospholipase C-delta1 gene.

abstract：:Although leukotriene B4 (LTB4) has been reported to stimulate monocytes and neutrophils, its role on dendritic cell (DC) activity has not been examined. Here, we investigated the expression of LTB4 receptor and the effect of LTB4 on human DC chemotaxis. We analyzed LTB4 receptors, BLT1 and BLT2, by using RT-PCR. DCs e...
