12(r) 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.

Biosynthesis of 12(R)-HETE in invertebrates is via lipoxygenation of arachidonic acid . In mammals, 12(R)-HETE can be produced by 12(R)-LOs and also by CYP450 oxidation. The activity of 12(R)-HETE in mammals is predominantly proinflammatory. 12(R)-HETE exhibits dose-dependent leukocyte chemotaxis at concentrations as low as 100 nM, and lowers intraocular pressure in rabbits.

Electrolyte and fluid transport in the kidney are regulated in part by arachidonic acid and its metabolites. Electrolyte and fluid transport in the kidney are regulated in part by arachidonic acid and its metabolites. 17-HETE is a cytochrome P450 (CYP450) metabolite of arachidonic acid that has stereospecific effects on sodium transport in the kidney. 17(R)-HETE is an inactive isomer of 17-HETE, whereas the (S) enantiomer can inhibit proximal tubule ATPase activity at a concentration of 2 μM.

(±)12-HETE is one of the six monohydroxy fatty acids produced by the non-enzymatic oxidation of arachidonic acid. The biological activity of (±)12-HETE is similar to that of its constituent enantiomers . It aggregates neutrophils with an EC50 value of 40 nM.[1] Reference：[1].

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.

Electrolyte and fluid transport in the kidney are regulated in part by arachidonic acid and its metabolites. 16-HETE is a minor CYP450 metabolite of arachidonic acid released by the kidney upon angiotensin II stimulation that demonstrates stereospecific biological activity. Electrolyte and fluid transport in the kidney are regulated in part by arachidonic acid and its metabolites. 16-HETE is a minor CYP450 metabolite of arachidonic acid released by the kidney upon angiotensin II stimulation that demonstrates stereospecific biological activity. 16(S)-HETE inhibits proximal tubule ATPase activity by as much as 60% at a concentration of 2 µM.[1]

12(S)-HETE is a product of arachidonic acid metabolism through the 12-lipoxygenase pathway. It is primarily found in platelets, leukocytes, and to a lesser extent in smooth muscle cells. It enhances tumor cell adhesion to endothelial cells, fibronectin, and the subendothelial matrix. tetranor-12(S)-HETE is the major β-oxidation product resulting from peroxisomal metabolism of 12(S)-HETE in numerous tissues, and Lewis lung carcinoma cells. No biological function has yet been determined for tetranor-12(S)-HETE. Some data indicate it may play a role in controlling the inflammatory response in injured corneas. In some diseases (e.g., Zellweger's Syndrome) peroxisomal abnormalities result in the inability of cells to metabolize 12(S)-HETE, which may be responsible for symptoms of the disease. The tetranor derivative of 12(S)-HETE is available as a research tool for the elucidation of the metabolic fate of its parent compound.

11(R)-HETE is biosynthesized by 11(R)-LOs of the sea urchin, S. purpuratus, and the fresh water hydra, H. vulgaris. The biological activity of 11(R)-HETE relates to oocyte maturation and tentacle regeneration, respectively, in these two species. 11(R)-HETE is also produced when aspirin-treated recombinant COX-2 is incubated with arachidonic acid. Stereochemical assignment of the (R) enantiomer is based on comparison of chiral HPLC retention times to published results.

12(R)-HEPE, a monohydroxy fatty acid derived from EPA in the eggs of the sea urchin S. purpuratus, has a biological activity that, while not extensively documented, may resemble that of 12(R)-HETE (Catalog No.34560).

5(R)-HETE is a rare lipoxygenase product of arachidonic acid. Nearly all plant and animal 5-LOs produce 5(S)-HETE, but the presence of a 5(R)-LO and the synthesis of 5(R)-HpETE and 5(R)-HETE have been confirmed in oocytes of the bivalve mollusk, S. solidissima. 5(R)-HETE is more potent than the (S)-enantiomer as a chemotactic agent for human neutrophils.

15(R)-HETE, a monohydroxy fatty acid, is synthesized from arachidonic acid via aspirin-acetylated COX-2, leading to the formation of specialized pro-resolving mediators 15(R)-lipoxin A4 and B4 through a transcellular mechanism involving 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO). Additionally, this compound is produced by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform CYP2C9 and can be generated from arachidonic acid by COX-1 in human mast cells, where it accumulates due to its resistance to conversion into 15-KETE by 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase (15-PGDH). As an agonist of PPARβ/δ, 15(R)-HETE induces the expression of a target gene in NIH3T3 cells, demonstrating its biological significance.

12(S)-HETE is the predominant lipoxygenase product of mammalian platelets. [1] It enhances tumor cell adhesion to endothelial cells, fibronectin, and the subendothelial matrix at 0.1μM181M.[2][3]

(R)-N,N-diethyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrodiindeno[7,1-de:1',7'-fg][1,3,2]dioxaphosphocin-12-amine is a useful organic compound for research related to life sciences and the catalog number is T64487.

9(R)-HETE is an enantiomer which makes up 50% of (±)9-HETE . At a concentration of 300 nM, 9(R)-HETE activates RXRγ-dependent transcription 1.5 fold relative to a control. Stereochemical assignment of the (R) enantiomer is based on comparison of chiral HPLC retention times to published results.

19(R)-HETE is a renal artery vasodilator that can be used to study angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy.

12-OxoETE is synthesized by human platelets and Aplysia nervous tissue after incubation with arachidonic acid. Microsomal fractions of various tissues will reduce 12-oxoETE to 12(S)-HETE or a mixture of 12(S)- and 12(R)-HETE. 12-OxoETE induces a rapid, dose dependent increase of cytoplasmic free calcium via a leukotriene B4 receptor or a common activation sequence.

(±)12-HEPE is produced by non-enzymatic oxidation of EPA. It contains equal amounts of 12(S)-HEPE and 12(R)-HEPE. The biological activity of (±)12-HEPE is likely mediated by one of the individual isomers, most commonly the 12(S) isomer in mammalian systems. 12-HEPE inhibits platelet aggregation with the same potency as 12-HETE, exhibiting IC50 values of 24 and 25 µM, respectively. [1] These compounds are also equipotent as inhibitors of U46619-induced contraction of rat aorta (IC50s = 8.6-8.8 µM).[2]
