Explanation:

Leukotrienes are lipid - derived mediators of inflammation. They have chemotactic properties, which means they can attract neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) from the blood to the site of inflammation. Interferons are mainly involved in antiviral responses and modulating the immune system in the context of viral infections. Histamine is involved in vasodilation and increased vascular permeability at the site of inflammation but is not the main chemotactic agent for neutrophils. Prostaglandins are involved in pain, fever, and further modulating the inflammatory response in terms of vascular changes but not specifically in neutrophil chemotaxis.

Answer:

Leukotrienes
