Regulation of Dendritic Cell Functions against Harmful Respiratory Pathogens by a Cysteinyl Leukotrienes Receptor Antagonist

Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) is a widely used medicine for asthma. Cysteinyl leukotrienes (cysLTs) are involved in the regulation of dendritic cell (DC) function. However, the effects of LTRA on DC-related antimicrobial immunity against harmful respiratory pathogens remain unknow...
