10,13,16-Docosatrienoic acid, (10Z,13Z,16Z)-

Description:
10,13,16-Docosatrienoic acid, also known as (10Z,13Z,16Z)-docosatrienoic acid, is a polyunsaturated fatty acid characterized by its long carbon chain and multiple double bonds. Specifically, it contains 22 carbon atoms and three cis double bonds located at the 10th, 13th, and 16th positions of the carbon chain. This structure contributes to its fluidity and reactivity, making it an important component in various biological membranes and a precursor for bioactive lipids. The presence of multiple double bonds allows for greater flexibility in the molecular structure, which can influence the physical properties of fats and oils in which it is found. This fatty acid is typically derived from natural sources, including certain plant oils and marine organisms. Its role in human health is significant, as it may be involved in anti-inflammatory processes and cellular signaling. Additionally, it is studied for its potential benefits in cardiovascular health and metabolic functions.
