(±)9-HODE

Description: (±)9-HODE is one of the two racemic monohydroxy fatty acids resulting from the non-enzymatic oxidation of linoleic acid. Approximately equal proportions of both isomers are found in mitochondrial and plasma membranes of rabbit reticulocytes. [1][2] Oxidized LDL contains significant amounts of esterified 9- and 13-HpODEs and HODEs. [3][4]. Target: Others. Smiles: C(C(/C=C/C=C\CCCCC)O)CCCCCCC(O)=O.
