In order to explore the oxidation mode of lipoxygenase (LOX) obtained from infected rice plants, typical unsaturated fatty acids (3—8) were treated with LOX and oxygen. It was observed that ω-10 and ω-6 positions of unsaturated fatty acids were oxidized predominantly in the cases of exotic ω-6 (4 and 5) and ω-3 (7 and 8) series, respectively. In the case of endogenous fatty acids (3 and 6), oxidation at ω-6 position predominated. All the allylic alcohols obtained by reduction of the oxidation products with NaBH4 possess S-configuration.

Described are fatty acids with one or more unsaturations, having an odd hydrocarbon chain, the fatty acids having the chemical structure of the therapeutically active metabolites of even-chain mono- or polyunsaturated alpha-hydroxylated fatty acids. Also described are compositions comprising said fatty acids, medical uses thereof, and the use thereof as indicators of the efficacy of and/or response to the treatment of a patient with the even-chain mono- or polyunsaturated alpha-hydroxylated fatty acids from which they are derived.

fatty acids belonging to the oxylipin class of natural products are present in marine and terrestrial sources as well as in the human body. Due to their biological activities and role in diverse biosynthetic pathways, oxylipins biosynthesized from eicosapentaenoic acid and arachidonic acid have attracted great interest from the scientific community. One example is 3-hydroxyeicosapentaenoic acid where
