Notes: (±)13-HDHA is an autoxidation product of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in vitro.{7479,7491} It is also produced from incubations of DHA in rat liver, brain, and intestinal microsomes.{7480,7490,7492} Fresh water hydra was shown to metabolize DHA to 13(R)-HDHA, presumably via the 11R-lipoxygenase activity.{2263} (±)13-HDHA is a potential marker of oxidative stress in brain and retina where DHA is an abundant polyunsaturated fatty acid.
