An eicosanoid that is generated by the action of cyclooxygenases on the omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Prostaglandin E3 regulates ocular pressure, exerts anti-inflammatory activities and may inhibit tumor cell proliferation. Prostaglandin E3 may be used as a biomarker for EPA to evaluate the association between EPA and its antineoplastic activity.
