Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is an inflammatory mediator biosynthesized from arachidonic acid through the 5-lipoxygenase pathway. It is widely used in research to study neutrophil chemotaxis, inflammation, and immune responses, including its role in inducing neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
