8-hete

(±)8-HETE 在生命科学相关研究中具有广泛的应用。

8(R)-HETE is biosynthesized by lipoxygenation of arachidonic acid in marine invertebrates such as gorgonian corals and starfish. Stereochemical assignment of the (R) enantiomer is based on comparison of chiral HPLC retention times to published results.

(±)18-HETE(18-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid)是18号碳上有羟基的花生四烯酸代谢物，由细胞色素P-450催化生成。

8(S),15(S)-DiHETE is formed when 15(S)-HETE is subjected to further oxidation by 15-LO. It causes eosinophil chemotaxis with an ED50 value of 1.5 μM but is not chemotactic for neutrophils. 8(S),15(S)-DiHETE antagonizes the hyperalgesic activity of 8(R),15(S)-DiHETE and LTB4 in the rat hind paw pain model.

8(S)-HETE is a major lipoxygenase product in PMA-treated murine epidermis. It activates mouse keratinocyte protein kinase C with an IC50 of 100 μM. 8(S)-HETE also activates PPARα selectively at concentrations as low as 0.3 μM. Stereochemical assignment of the (S) enantiomer is based on comparison of chiral HPLC retention times to published results.

8(S)-HETrE is a monohydroxy polyunsaturated fatty acid produced by rabbit neutrophil lipoxygenase when dihomo-γ-linolenic acid is used as a substrate. Although the biological activities of 8(S)-HETrE have not been well characterized, it is expected to behave similarly to 8(S)-HETE .

Metabolism of 12(R)-HETE in corneal tissue produces predominantly the compound resulting from the loss of four carbon atoms through β-oxidation from C-1. This metabolite is 8(R)-hydroxy hexadecatrienoic acid (8(R)-HHxTrE) or 2,3,4,5-tetranor 12(R)-HETE.

CAY10514 is an aromatic analog of 8(S)-HETE. It acts as a dual agonist of PPARα and PPARγ with EC50 values of 0.173 and 0.642 μM, respectively.

Mulberrofuran A can inhibit the formations of 12-hydroxy-, 8, 10-heptadecatrienoic acid (HHT) and thromboxane B2, but it can increase the formation of 12-hydroxy-5, 8, 10, 14-eicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE).
