Description

(Z)-11-Hexadecenal is a fatty acid that is found in plants and animals. It has been shown to have anti-tumor response, which may be due to its ability to inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells. This compound also has a strong odorant binding capacity, which could be due to its reversible covalent bond with odorant molecules. (Z)-11-Hexadecenal can bind to the toll-like receptor 2, which is expressed on macrophages and dendritic cells. This receptor is involved in the immune system's inflammatory response, and activation of this receptor leads to an increase in physiological activities such as natural killer cell activity and cytokine production.
