Characterization of a Newly Synthesized Cysteinyl Leukotriene 2 Receptor Selective Antagonist Using Cell Based β-arrestin and Vascular Ear Permeability Assays in Mice

(hCysLT2R) based on a β-galactosidase complementation system. The EC50 values for LTC4 and LTD4 are consistent with previous literature values determined based on radio-labelling affinity assays for hCysLT2R. Activity of a synthetic analogue of LTC4, N-Methyl LTC4 (NMLTC4), gave an EC50 value of 8.5...
