Measurements of Prostanoids, Leukotrienes, and Isoprostanes by Enzyme Immunoassays

We have summarized in Chapter 16 the recent advances in the mechanisms of regulation of leukotriene and prostaglandin biosynthesis and their pathways of synthesis. We have outlined a detailed summary for measuring prostaglandins, thromboxane, and leukotrienes via radioimmunoassays, and evoked the new scintillation proximity assays (SPAs). This chapter also focuses on the measurement of prostaglandins, thromboxane, leukotrienes, and isoprostanes, but via enzyme immunoassays (EIAs).
