Leukotriene B4 omega-oxidation by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes is inhibited by pyocyanin, a phenazine derivative produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) metabolize the potent chemotaxin leukotriene B4 (LTB4) by omega-oxidation to 20-hydroxyl-LTB4 and 20-carboxy-LTB4. The ability of unstimulated human PMNL to metabolize exogenous LTB4 was found to be inhibited by pyocyanin, a phenazine derivative produced by...
