12-epi Leukotriene B4
12-epi LTB4 is a stereoisomer of Leukotriene B4 not typically formed by LTA4 hydrolase or non-enzymatic hydrolysis. It acts as a weak agonist at human BLT1/BLT2 receptors, requiring high micromolar concentrations for activation, making it a useful pharmacological tool for studying LTB4 receptor specificity and signaling in inflammatory research models.
