Ltc4 is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Ltc4 is associated with abnormalities such as Asthma, Eosinophilia, Pulmonary Eosinophilia, Pneumonia and Cardiovascular Diseases. The involved functions are known as Signal, Gene Expression, Stimulus, Signal Transduction and Metabolic Inhibition. Ltc4 often locates in Plasma membrane, Cytoplasm, Back, Cytoplasmic and Tissue membrane. The associated genes with LTC4 are STIM1 gene, ABCC2 gene, CD9 gene, Mutant Proteins and Amino Acids, Aromatic. The related lipids are glycolithocholate.
To understand associated biological information of LTC4, we collected biological information of abnormalities, associated pathways, cellular/molecular locations, biological functions, related genes/proteins, lipids and common seen animal/experimental models with organized paragraphs from literatures.
