In human neutrophils, 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) can mediate the lipoxygenation of ω-3 docosapentaenoic acid (DPAn-3) to 7-hydroxy-ω-3-docosapentaenoic acid (7-HDPAn-3) (Cipollina et al. 2014). Neutrophils treated with an ALOX5 inhibitor completely suppressed the formation of 7-oxo-DPAn-3 and its hydroxy precursor 7-HDPAn-3, demonstrating that ALOX5 mediates the first step in 7-oxo-DPAn-3 biosynthesis (Cipollina et al. 2014).
