| | Sterculic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Sterculic acid is a stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1) inhibitor. Sterculic acid specifically inhibits the delta-9 desaturase (Δ9D) activity with an IC50 value of 0.9 μM[1]. | | Definition | ChEBI: A long-chain, monounsaturated fatty acid composed of 9-octadecenoic acid having a 9,10-cyclopropenyl group. | | in vivo | Sterculic acid has been proposed as a potential tool for the treatment of metabolic syndrome (MS) since it inhibits the activity of the stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1 (SCD1)
in vivo[3]. | | IC 50 | delta-9 desaturase: 0.9 μM (IC50) | | References | [1] Lei Zhang, et al.
