5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) is an endogenous eicosanoid. 5-HETE is an intermediate in the pathway of leukotriene synthesis. In addition, it is a modulator of tubuloglomerular feedback.5-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid is a key intermediate of the arachidonate-dependent protective signaling in monocytes/macrophages exposed to peroxynitrite. Peroxynitrite elicited the nuclear membrane translocation of 5-LO and enhanced its enzymatic activity via a mechanism sensitive to low concentrations of inhibitors of 5-LO or the 5-LO-activating protein, as well as to genetic depletion of the latter enzyme. Inhibition of 5-LO activity was invariably associated with the cytosolic localization of PKC, the mitochondrial accumulation of Bad, and a rapid MPT-dependent necrosis. All these events were prevented by nanomolar concentrations of the 5-LO product 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid.
Human 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) ELISA Kit employs a two-site sandwich ELISA to quantitate 5-HETE in samples. An antibody specific for 5-HETE has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any5-HETE present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After removing any unbound substances, a biotin-conjugated antibody specific for 5-HETE is added to the wells. After washing, Streptavidin conjugated Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to the wells. Following a wash to remove any unbound avidin-enzyme reagent, a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of 5-HETE bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped and the intensity of the color is measured.
