cis,cis-9,12-Hexadecadienoic acid (CAS 5070-03-1)
QUICK LINKS
cis-9,12-Hexadecadienoic acid is a naturally occurring fatty acid that is used in research focused on lipid metabolism and the biochemistry of fatty acids. In nutritional studies, it is examined for its role in cell membrane fluidity and function, as well as its impact on the regulation of metabolic pathways. Researchers also investigate the incorporation of cis-9,12-Hexadecadienoic acid into various lipid structures, such as phospholipids and triglycerides, to understand its influence on the physical properties of biological membranes and energy storage molecules. Additionally, its role in the biosynthesis of eicosanoids, which are signaling molecules involved in inflammatory and immune responses, is a subject of investigation.
