Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLTRs) include the following two receptors:

  • Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CysLTR1)
  • Cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 2 (CysLTR2)

The recently elucidated CysLTE, represented by GPR99/OXGR1, may constitute a third CysLTR.[1]
