Descriptor SRS-A
Entry term(s) sustancia de reacción lenta de la anafilaxia
Scope note: Grupo de LEUCOTRIENOS (LTC4, LTD4 y LTE4) que es el principal mediador de la BRONCOCONSTRICCIÓN, HIPERSENSIBILIDAD y otras reacciones alérgicas. En estudios anteriores se describía una "sustancia de reacción lenta de la ANAFILAXIA" liberada del pulmón por el veneno de cobra o después de un choque anafiláctico. Se estableció la relación entre los leucotrienos SRS-A por UV que demostró la presencia del trieno conjugado. (Merck Index, 11th ed)

Scope note: A group of LEUKOTRIENES; (LTC4; LTD4; and LTE4) that is the major mediator of BRONCHOCONSTRICTION; HYPERSENSITIVITY; and other allergic reactions. Earlier studies described a "slow-reacting substance of ANAPHYLAXIS" released from lung by cobra venom or after anaphylactic shock. The relationship between SRS-A leukotrienes was established by UV which showed the presence of the conjugated triene. (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
