Arachidonic acid is an essential polyunsaturated fatty acid that is present in cell membranes and can be released in response to cellular injury or other stimuli. Once released, arachidonic acid can be metabolized by enzymes called cyclooxygenases and lipoxygenases to form various pro-inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes, that contribute to inflammation.

Oxygenation of arachidonic acid at C-12 and C-15 generates products (5S, 12S-DHETE and 14,15-DHETE) which can modulate various neutrophil functions. Acts as a second terms potentiation in the nervous system. Product inhibits Ras-GAP.
