9(z),11(e),13(e) octadecatrienoic acid

alpha-Eleostearic acid (cis-eleostearic acid) is a conjugated fatty acid present in Anemone seeds and can be used as a chemical taxonomic marker for Anemone.

9(Z),11(E),13(E)-Octadecatrienoic Acid ethyl ester (α-ESA) is a conjugated polyunsaturated fatty acid 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. α-ESA is metabolized and converted to conjugated linoleic acid (9Z,11E-CLA) in rats. 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. In DLD-1 cells supplemented with α-ESA, apoptosis was induced via lipid peroxidation with an EC50 of 20 μM. It also inhibits DNA polymerases and topoisomerases with IC50s ranging from ~5-20 μM for different isoforms of the enzymes. α-ESA ethyl ester is a neutral, more lipid soluble form of the free acid.

9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-Octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester, an isomer of 9(Z),11(E),13(E)-octadecatrienoic acid methyl ester and the methyl ester derivative of 9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-octadecatrienoic acid, serves as a standard for quantifying 9(Z),11(E),13(Z)-octadecatrienoic acid in wild growing pomegranate (P. granatum) seed oil [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1240].

13(S)-HOTrE(γ) is a metabolite and octadecatrienoic acid used as a metabolic marker, in the study of metabolic disorders and neurological diseases.

Punicic acid (Trichosanic acid) is a naturally occurring conjugated linolenic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid that is anti-obesity and anti-diabetic through activation of PPARα, PPARβ, PPARγ, and inhibition of NF-κB; anti-inflammatory through inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX); improves neuroinflammation; and prevention of osteoporosis.
