(±)5,6-DHET acts as an epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) metabolite. (±)5,6-DHET is formed from the metabolism of arachidonic acid by cytochrome P450 epoxygenases. It functions as a signaling molecule in various cellular processes, including the modulation of ion channels and the regulation of intracellular calcium levels. (±)5,6-DHET is also involved in the inhibition of platelet aggregation and the promotion of endothelial cell migration. Its mechanism of action involves binding to specific receptors and activating downstream signaling pathways, ultimately leading to the observed physiological effects.
