(+/-)-9-HYDROXY-5Z,7E,11Z,14Z,17Z-EICOSAPENTAENOIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Description

(±)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.

Definition

ChEBI: 9-HEPE is a HEPE that is (5Z,7E,11Z,14Z,17Z)-icosapentaenoic acid carrying a hydroxy substituent at position 9. It has a role as a marine metabolite. It is a conjugate acid of a 9-HEPE(1-).
