12 (S) -HEPE
12 (S) -HEPE is a 12-lipoxygenase-derived metabolite of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) . It is further metabolized by neutrophils to dihydroxy products and can competitively inhibit the 5-lipoxygenase pathway, reducing leukotriene synthesis. This mechanism underpins its research utility in studying the anti-inflammatory actions of omega-3 fatty acids in cellular and biochemical assays.
