Difference between Leukotriene and Ulcerative colitis

Leukotriene vs. Ulcerative colitis

Leukotrienes are a family of eicosanoid inflammatory mediators produced in leukocytes by the oxidation of arachidonic acid (AA) and the essential fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) by the enzyme arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase. Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a long-term condition that results in inflammation and ulcers of the colon and rectum.
