Bioactivity
5 (S) -Hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5 (S) -HpETE) is a monohydroperoxy polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) generated by the enzymatic conversion of arachidonic acid via 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) . Subsequently, 5 (S) -HpETE undergoes metabolism to form leukotriene A4 (LTA4), which serves as a pivotal intermediate in the synthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) .
