(9E,11E,13E)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic acid is a fatty acid that is naturally occurring in humans and other mammals. It has been shown to have regulatory effects on the body's formation of lipids and helps form important structures such as cell membranes. (9E,11E,13E)-9,11,13-Octadecatrienoic acid is also used as an antioxidant and has been shown to inhibit cancer cell growth. This fatty acid can be synthesized by the body from other fatty acids or obtained through diet. The synthesis of (9E,11E,13E)-9,11,13-octadecatrienoic acid is catalyzed by the enzyme delta-6 desaturase. In some cases this enzyme may not function properly due to genetic mutations or other factors. This can lead to metabolic disorders such as dyslipidemia or diabetes mellitus type 2.
