IUPAC 名称
(9E)-8,15-dihydroxyicosa-5,9,11,13-tetraenoic acid
描述
8,15-DiHETE is a double oxidation product of arachadonic acid. It is generated through the action of 15-lipoxygenase (PMID: 8334154). 8,15-DiHETE is also known as eosinophil chemotactic factor of anaphylaxis (ECF-A). In particular it is able to selectively attract eosinophils and neutrophils from mixed leukocyte populations.
Leukotrienes are eicosanoids. The eicosanoids consist of the prostaglandins (PGs), thromboxanes (TXs), leukotrienes (LTs) and lipoxins (LXs). The PGs and TXs are collectively identified as prostanoids. Prostaglandins were originally shown to be synthesized in the prostate gland, thromboxanes from platelets (thrombocytes) and leukotrienes from leukocytes, hence the derivation of their names. All mammalian cells except erythrocytes synthesize eicosanoids. These molecules are extremely potent, able to cause profound physiological effects at very dilute concentrations. All eicosanoids function locally at the site of synthesis, through receptor-mediated G-protein linked signaling pathways. [HMDB]
