Beschreibung

Myristic acid is a fatty acid that is produced by plants and animals. It is important for cell membrane structure and function, as well as for energy metabolism and the production of various compounds. Myristic acid can be metabolized in the body to produce a number of compounds, including methyl myristate, which has been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Myristic acid also binds to DNA through covalent linkages and has significant cytotoxicity against polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) in vitro. This activity may be due to its ability to bind with toll-like receptors on PMN cells.
