15-OxoEDE is produced by the oxidation of 15-HEDE. 15-OxoEDE inhibits 5-LO from RBL-1 cells with an IC50 of 55 μM, which is about 2-fold lower than 15(S)-HEDE. A related oxo-eicosanoid, 5-oxoETE, is biosynthesized from 5(S)-HETE by a specific dehydrogenase and has potent inflammatory activity.
ChEBI: 15-oxoEDE is an oxoeicosadienoic acid that consists of 11Z,13E-oxoeicosadienoic acid with the oxo substituent located at position 15. It has a role as a metabolite. It is an OxoEDE and an enone. It is functionally related to a 15-HEDE. It is a conjugate acid of a 15-oxo-EDE(1-).
