Biological effects of montelukast, a cysteinyl‐leukotriene receptor‐antagonist, on T lymphocytes

Abstract

Biological effects of MNT delineate a complex picture of gene activation and repression, probably induced by Cys-LTR blockade. The induction of apoptosis in allergen-specific T cell population, as a final result, appears fundamental in the treatment of asthma.
