Description

6-trans Leukotriene (6-trans LTB₄) is produced by the non-enzymatic hydrolysis of LTA₄.¹ Oxidative decomposition of cysLTs such as LTC₄ in the presence of myeloperoxidase and hypochlorous acid can also produce 6-trans LTB₄, but the physiologic importance of this mechanism is not clear.² 6-trans LTB₄ is relatively inactive compared to LTB₄, but chemoattractant properties in neutrophils have been reported.³
