17(S)-HpDHA is a mono-oxygenation product of docosahexaenoic acid in human whole blood, human leukocytes, human glial cells, and mouse brain. 17(S)-HpDHA is generally reduced to 17(S)-HDHA , a compound that serves as a precursor to 17(S)-resolvins. 17(S)-HDHA has been shown to inhibit TNF-α-induced interleukin-1β expression in human glioma cells and inhibit TNF-α-induced leukocyte trafficking to the murine air pouch.
