2-Bromohexadecanoic acid, approx.97%
Biochem/physiol Actions
2-Bromohexadecanoic acid is a PPAR? agonist. It has also been shown to inhibit fatty acid oxidation, inhibit DHHC-mediated palmitoylation, and promote glucose uptake in rat cardiac cells and the insulin-sensitive murine fibroblast line A31-IS.
General description
PPAR? (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, delta isoform) acts as a transcription factor for gene expression as well as playing a role in lipid metabolism regulation; activity of this receptor is ligand-regulated. 2-Bromohexadecanoic acid is a metabolically stable analoge of the fatty acid palmitic acid that has been shown to be a natural ligand for the PPAR? receptor. 2-Bromohexadecanoic acid has also been used in studies of fatty acid oxidation, palmitoylation, and glucose uptake.
