    Product Description

    (±)12(13)-EpOME is the 12,13-cis epoxide form of linoleic acid (Item Nos. 90150 | 90150.1 | 21909).1,2 It is formed primarily via linoleic acid metabolism by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP2J2, CYP2C8, and CYP2C9, however, CYP1A1 can contribute to (±)12(13)-EpOME production when pharmacologically induced.2 (±)12(13)-EpOME (500 µM) induces mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death in renal proximal tubule epithelial cells.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
