9-Nitrooleic Acid is a bioactive, nitric-oxide derived fatty acid. 9-Nitrooleic Acid. Nitrated unsaturated fatty acids, such as 10- and 12-nitrolinoleate (LNO2), cholesteryl nitrolinoleate, and nitrohydroxylinoleate, represent a new class of endogenous lipid-derived signalling molecules. LNO2 isomers serve as potent endogenous ligands for PPARgamma and can also decompose or be metabolized to release nitric oxide.1,2,3,4 9-Nitrooleate is one of two regioisomers of nitrooleate, the other being 10-nitrooleate (OA-NO2), used for the mixture of isomers), which are formed by nitration of oleic acid in approximately equal proportions in vivo.5 Peroxynitrite, acidified nitrite, and myeloperoxidase in the presence of H2O2 and nitrite, all mediate the nitration of oleic acid. OA-NO2 is found in human plasma as the free acid and esterified in phospholipids at concentrations of 619 52nM and 302 369nM, respectively. OA-NO2 activates PPARgamma approximately 7-fold at a concentration of 1uM and effectively promotes differentiation 3T3-L1 preadipocytes to adipocytes at 3uM.5 Synonyms: (9E)-9-Nitro-9-octadecenoic Acid, 9-nitro-9E-octadecenoic acid, 9-nitro-9-trans-Octadecenoic Acid CAS No: 875685-44-2 Molecular Formula: C18H33NO4 Molecular Weight: 327.46 Purity: 98% Appearance: Colorless to light yellow clear liquid in ethanol lambdamax: 255nm Storage and Stability: Store at -20C.
