Leukotriene C4 and leukotriene D4 are slow reacting substances produced by mouse mastocytoma cells and rat basophilic leukemia cells, respectively. Serine x borate complex, an inhibitor of glutamyl transpeptidase (EC 2.3.2.2), prevented the formation of the biologically more potent leukotriene

The migration of rat aortic smooth muscle cells was measured in modified Boyden chambers. Smooth muscle cells were motile in vitro and their migration was stimulated (time- and dose-dependently) by a platelet-derived factor. Treatment of platelets with indomethacin resulted in
