Abstract
A great deal of attention has recently been focused on the role of the products of arachidonic acid metabolism in the regulation of the immune response. It has been suggested by numerous investigators, and in a variety of experimental systems, that several arachidonic acid metabolites may alter lymphocyte function. The primary focus of this chapter is a review of the suppressive activities of the products of arachidonic acid metabolism, with particular emphasis on their role in regulatory (suppressor) cell function.
