12(S)-HEPE
|
||
12(S)-HEPE is a monohydroxy fatty acid synthesized from EPA by the action of 12-LO. Unstimulated neutrophils metabolize 12(S)-HEPE to 12(S),20-diHEPE, whereas stimulated neutrophils produce 5(S),12(S)-HEPE via the 5-lipoxygenase pathway. The competitive action of 12(S)-HEPE with arachidonic acid as a substrate for 5-LO in the formation of leukotrienes may provide a basis for the anti-inflammatory potential of ω-3 fatty acids. | |||

15(S)-HEPE
|
||
15(S)-HEPE is a monohydroxy fatty acid synthesized from EPA by the action of 15-LO. The biosynthesis of 15-HEPE from EPA in guinea pig epidermal enzyme preparations has been documented. 15(S)-HEPE generated by soybean lipoxygenation of EPA inhibits RBL-1 cell 5-LO with an IC50 value of 28 μM. | |||

(±)9-HEPE
|
||
(±)9-HEPE is produced by non-enzymatic oxidation of EPA. It contains equal amounts of 9(S)-HEPE and 9(R)-HEPE. The biological activity of (±)9-HEPE has not been clearly documented. | |||

(±)8-HEPE
|
||
(±)8-HEPE is produced by non-enzymatic oxidation of EPA. It contains equal amounts of 8(S)-HEPE and 8(R)-HEPE. The ability of (±)8-HEPE to induce hatching of E. modestus and B. balanoides eggs is probably due to the presence of the 8(R) isomer within the racemic mixture.[1][2] Reference:[1].
