Descripción

7-Oxoheptanoic acid is a synthetic fatty acid that is found in the plasma of humans and other mammals. It is produced by oxidation of cholesterol, which occurs in the liver and small intestine. 7-Oxoheptanoic acid has been shown to be involved in the regulation of gene expression through modifications to DNA and protein targets. This fatty acid also has covalent adducts with plasma proteins such as trypsin and plasmin, which may contribute to its biological activity. 7-Oxoheptanoic acid can be oxidized into reactive oxygen species (ROS) that have been shown to cause oxidative damage to lipids, proteins, and DNA.
