(+/-) 13-HODE cholesteryl ester is an endogenous metabolite derived from atherosclerotic lesions, produced through the Cu2+-catalyzed oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL). It is synthesized by the action of lipoxygenase enzymes, particularly 15-lipoxygenase from rabbit reticulocytes and human monocytes, acting on cholesteryl linoleate, a key component of LDL. This compound is essential for studying lipid metabolism and the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular conditions.
