Lipoxin A5 is an eicosapentaenoic acid derived from pig white blood cells. Lipoxin A5 slowly contracted the guinea pig lung parenchymal strips with a contractile force similar to that of LXA4 and LXB4.2, but LXA5 did not have the vasodilating effect on the aortic smooth muscle shown by LXA4 and LXB4.2.
