Abstract

We determined the relationship of allergic disease to the number and activity of eosinophils and their production of leukotriene B₄ and leukotriene C₄ (leukotriene D₄ equivalents). Granulocytes from allergic rhinitis (AR) subjects and asthmatics release more LTC₄ than normals. Furthermore, eosinophils of astmatics generate more LTC₄ than those of AR subjects.
