16-HETE
16-HETE is arachidonic acid metabolite through subterminal hydroxylation by cytochrome P-450. 16-HETE exhibits vasodilatory and PMN inhibitory effects and serves as biomarker for early stages of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

Biological Activity
16-HETE (0.01-1 μM) specificially suppresses PMN aggregation and adhesion, with no significant effects on platelets function and blood pressure[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
16-HETE (1 μg/kg/min) suppresses the increase of intracranial pressure (ICP) in a rabbit model of thromboembolic stroke[1].
