Methyl (13Z,16Z,19Z)-docosatrienoate

SKU: orb2944099

Description

cis-13,16,19-Docosatrienoic acid methyl ester is an ester form of docosatrienoic acid, a rare ω-3 fatty acid. This compound is not easily detectable in the normal phospholipid polyunsaturated fatty acid pool and at a concentration of 5 μM, it inhibits the binding of [3H]-LTB4 to porcine neutrophils. The methyl ester form exhibits greater lipid solubility than the free acid, potentially making it more suitable for certain formulations.
