Bioactivity
EDHF (endothelium-derived hyperpolarizing factor) is an unidentified mediator released from vascular endothelial cells in response to acetylcholine and bradykinin which is distinct from the NOS- (nitric oxide) and COX-derived (prostacyclin) vasodilators. Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids produces epoxides such as (±) 14 (15) -EpETrE which are prime candidates for the actual active mediator. However, the CYP450 metabolites of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid have been little studied relative to arachidonate epoxygenase metabolites. (±) 19 (20) -EpDPA is a DHA epoxygenase metabolite, derived via epoxidation of the ω-3 double bond of DHA. The EDHF activity of (±) 19 (20) -EpDPA has not yet been determined. The epoxygenase metabolites of DHA have also been detected in a mouse inflammation model.
