4,7,10,13,16,18-Docosahexaenoicacid, 20-hydroxy-, (4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z,18E)-

Description:

4,7,10,13,16,18-Docosahexaenoic acid, 20-hydroxy-, commonly referred to as 20-hydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid (20-OH-DHA), is a polyunsaturated fatty acid belonging to the omega-3 family. It is characterized by a long carbon chain with six double bonds, which contributes to its fluidity and reactivity. The presence of a hydroxyl group at the 20th carbon position distinguishes it from other forms of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). This compound is primarily found in marine sources, particularly in fish oils, and plays a significant role in various biological processes, including anti-inflammatory responses and neuroprotection. Its structural configuration, indicated by the (4Z,7Z,10Z,13Z,16Z,18E) notation, specifies the geometric arrangement of the double bonds, which is crucial for its biological activity. 20-OH-DHA is of interest in nutritional and pharmaceutical research due to its potential health benefits, including cardiovascular health and cognitive function enhancement.
