(UNDECYLTHIO)-ACETIC ACID Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Biological Activity

3-thiatetradecanoic acid is an activator of ppar.the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (ppars) are transcription factors involved in fatty acid metabolism and energy homeostasis. the ppars also play crucial roles in the control of cellular growth and differentiation.

in vitro

in bt4cn cells, 3-thiatetradecanoic acid could activate all ppar subtypes dose-dependently. in cell culture experiments, the pparγ-selective ligand brl49653 moderately inhibited growth of bt4cn cells, while administration of 3-thiatetradecanoic acid led to a marked growth inhibition. moreover, the administration of the pparγ-selective antagonist gw9662 abolished brl49653-induced growth inhibition, but only marginally reduced the effect of 3-thiatetradecanoic acid [1].

in vivo

administration of 3-thiatetradecanoic acid increased mitochondrial and peroxisomal beta-oxidative capacity and carnitine palmitoyltransferase activity, but reduced free fatty acid and triacylglycerol levels in plasma compared to palmitic acid-treated rats and controls. 3-thiatetradecanoic acid administration was able to affect the fatty acid composition in plasma and liver by increasing the amount of monoenes [2].
