| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Heteroatom-substituted fatty acids have been observed to modulate the extension and desaturating of fatty acids, and to influence their distribution within phospholipids pools.1,2 10-Thiastearic acid inhibits desaturation of radiolabeled stearate to oleate in rat hepatocytes and hepatoma cells by more than 80% at a concentration of 25 μM.3 This activity is associated with a hypolipidemic effect, making this 10-thiastearic acid a useful tool for evaluating new anti-obesity therapeutics. | [Uses]
10-Thiastearic acid inhibits desaturation of stearate to oleate. 10-Thiastearic acid has hypolipidemic effect[1]. | [storage]
