12-HEPE

Description:
12-HEPE, or 12-hydroxy-eicosapentaenoic acid, is a bioactive lipid derived from eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which is an omega-3 fatty acid. This compound is characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group at the 12th carbon position of the eicosapentaenoic acid chain, which contributes to its unique biological properties. 12-HEPE is known for its potential anti-inflammatory effects and its role in various physiological processes, including modulation of immune responses and cell signaling pathways. It is often studied in the context of cardiovascular health and metabolic disorders due to its influence on lipid metabolism and inflammation. The compound is typically found in marine sources, particularly in fish oils, and can also be synthesized in the laboratory for research purposes. Its chemical structure allows it to interact with specific receptors and enzymes, making it a subject of interest in pharmacological and nutritional studies. Overall, 12-HEPE represents a significant area of research in understanding the health benefits of omega-3 fatty acids.
