Human monocytes incubated for 24, 48, and 72 h with IL-4 (10 ng/ml) were stimulated with Ca2+-ionophore A23187 (calcimycin; 5 microM) or opsonized zymosan. 15(S)-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid [15(S)-HETE], LTB4, and arachidonic acid (AA) release were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography/radioimmunoassay, liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS), or gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.
