Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) are high potency chemotactic factor.
The author demonstrated lipoxygenase products from C14 arachidonic acid in rabbit ocular tissues. The release of 5-HETE from rabbit ocular tissue was estimated by HPLC and radioimmunoassay technique.
The amount was high inretina, choroid, anterior uvea and conjunctiva in that order.
The present results in dicated that 5-HETE released from blood cell or from vascular tissues.
