5 (S) -HPETE
5 (S) -HpETE is a 5-lipoxygenase-derived hydroperoxy eicosatetraenoic acid produced from arachidonic acid. This key metabolic precursor is rapidly converted to leukotriene A4, driving the biosynthesis of pro-inflammatory leukotrienes studied in models of asthma, allergy, and inflammation.
