• Product Overview:
  10(S)-PAHSA is a stereoisomer of 10-PAHSA (Item No. 19973), an endogenous lipid that belongs to a collection of branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs). It is a FAHFA in which palmitic acid (Item No. 10006627) is esterified to 10-hydroxy stearic acid. Among the FAHFA family members, PAHSAs are the most abundant in the adipose tissue of glucose tolerant AG4OX mice, which overexpress the Glut4 glucose transporter specifically in adipose tissue.{27644,34386} A study using synthesized (R)- and (S)- stereoisomers of 9-PAHSA (Item No. 17037) reported that the 9(R)-PAHSA (Item No. 18022) is the predominant form that accumulates in adipose tissues in vivo.{34387} Also, cell lines favor the production of 9(R)-PAHSA and carboxyl ester lipase selectively hydrolyzes 9(S)-PAHSA (Item No. 18023).{34387}The use of this optically-active FAHFA product (the “Product”) is covered by U.S. Patent No. 10,240,025 and corresponding foreign counterpart applications.
