  5,6-Dehydroarachidonic acid is a 5-lipoxygenase (Lipoxygenase) inhibitor that inhibits the biosynthesis of leukotrienes. However, 5,6-Dehydroarachidonic acid had no effect on vascular cell proliferation[1][2][3]. |  [Definition]
  ChEBI: 5,6-dehydro Arachidonic Acid is a long-chain fatty acid. |  [Biological Activity]
  Inhibits 5-lipoxygenase of guinea pig leukocytes with an IC50 of 10 μM. In extracts of r at basophilic leukemia cells preincubated with 5,6-dehydro AAthe Ki for the conversion of arachidonic acid to 5-HPETE is 15 μM. |  [References]
