Bioactivity | (±)2-(14,15-Epoxyeicosatrienoyl) glycerol ((±)2-14,15-EG) is a novel CYP450 metabolite of 2-Arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG) in the kidney. (±)2-(14,15-Epoxyeicosatrienoyl) glycerol is a potent mitogen for renal epithelial cells, increasing DNA synthesis in LLCPKcl4 cells. (±)2-(14,15-Epoxyeicosatrienoyl) glycerol activates the metalloprotease ADAM17, which cleaves proTGF-α and releases TGF-α as a ligand that initiates the EGFR-ERK signalling pathway[1]. |
