15(S)-HETE is a bioactive lipid and a product of the metabolism of arachidonic acid by 15-lipoxygenase. In research applications, it is frequently studied for its role in modulating inflammation, as it is involved in the complex pathways that govern inflammatory responses. Investigations into the impact of 15(S)-HETE have provided insights into its involvement in cell signaling processes, particularly those influencing the behavior of smooth muscle cells and leukocytes. Additionally, 15(S)-HETE is used as a biomarker in studies exploring the mechanisms of conditions characterized by altered lipid metabolism or inflammatory states, allowing researchers to trace the lipid pathways and understand their biological implications. The compound also plays a part in angiogenesis research, where it is examined for its effects on vascular endothelial cells.
