(±) 13 (14) -EpDPA - CAS 895127-64-7

Cytochrome P450 metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids produces numerous bioactive epoxide regioisomers. (±) 13 (14) -EpDPA is a docosahexaenoic acid epoxygenase metabolite, derived via epoxidation of the 13,14-double bond of DHA. It has been detected in rat brain and spinal cord and is a preferred substrate for soluble epoxide hydrolase with a Km value of 3.2 μM. (±) 13 (14) -EpDPA demonstrates antihyperalgesic activity in inflammatory and neuropathic pain models. (±) 13 (14) -EpDPA and other epoxy metabolites of DHA are also reported to potently inhibit angiogenesis and tumor growth in in vitro assays.
