(±)19(20)-DiHDPA

Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, Cay-90310) is an essential fatty acid and the most abundant omega-3 fatty acid in neural tissues, especially in the retina and brain. (±)19(20)-DiHDPA is one of the major metabolites produced when DHA is incubated with NADPH-supplemented rat liver microsomes. DHA is also slowly metabolized by monkey seminal vesicles to (±)19(20)-DiHDPA. The route of production likely proceeds through cytochrome P450-catalyzed epoxidation at the omega-3 double bond, followed by conversion to the vicinal diols by epoxide hydrolase.Formal Name: (±)19,20-dihydroxy-4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z-docosapentaenoic acid.
