15-HPETE is reduced by phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) to the corresponding alcohol, 15-HETE (Suth01). 15-HETE and 12-HETE have reciprocal activity during inflammation, for example 15-HETE reduces the infiltration of inflammatory cells, meanwhile 12-HETE acts as an activator for infiltrating immune cells (Dowd, Kobza Black et al. 1985, Serhan, Jain et al. 2003).
