Lipoxin B4
Catalog No. A72696

Lipoxin B4 (LXB4) is an anti-inflammatory agent derived from the metabolism of arachidonic acid. It effectively reduces leukocyte infiltration and mucus secretion in the nasal mucosa while inhibiting mast cell and eosinophil degranulation in the upper airway. Additionally, LXB4 mitigates airway inflammation, mucus metaplasia, and hyper-responsiveness in the lower airway, demonstrating significant mucosal protective actions. Its properties make it a valuable tool for research into allergic inflammation in the upper and lower respiratory tracts.
