Product Name | 9(Z),11(E),13(E)-Octadecatrienoic Acid |
Description | α-ESA is a conjugated PUFA commonly found in plant seed oil. This fatty acid accounts for about 60% of the total fatty acid composition of bitter gourd seed oil and about 70% in tung oil.{14176} α-ESA is metabolized and converted to conjugated linoleic acid (9Z,11E-CLA) in rats.{14175} It has shown potential as a tumor growth suppressor. In colon cancer Caco-2 cells, α-ESA induced apoptosis through up-regulation of GADD45, p53, and PPARγ.{14176} In DLD-1 cells supplemented with α-ESA, apoptosis was induced via lipid peroxidation with an EC50 of 20 µM.{14175} It also inhibits DNA polymerases and topoisomerases with IC50s ranging from ~5-20 µM for different isoforms of the enzymes.{14174} |
