General Information
Biological Significance
Neuroketals and neuroprostanes are a class of compounds that result from the oxidation of docosahexenoic acid (DHA), which is enriched in the brain and retina, especially the synaptic membranes and retina. DHA is oxidized to isoprostane-like compounds called neuroprostanes which can undergo rearrangement to form D- and E-ring neuroprostanes called neuroketals.
