Description

20-HETE is a cytochrome P450 (CYP450) metabolite postulated to play an autacoid role in the renal and cerebral vasculature.1 In rat cerebral microvessels, 20-HETE is a vasoconstrictor that mediates pressure-induced autoregulatory vasoconstriction.2 20-HETE is excreted mainly as the glucuronide conjugate. The concentration of free 20-HETE (20-40 pg/ml in human urine) is about 10-fold lower than the corresponding concentration of the 20-glucuronide.3 20-HETE can be further metabolized by cyclooxygenase to 20-hydroxy PGG2 and 20-hydroxy PGH2.4
