| 2-HYDROXYOLEICACID Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Off-White to Pale Beige Solid | | Uses | An oleic acid synthetic analog that is an effective non-toxic anticancer drug with a wide spectrum against different types of cancer. An antihypertensive. | | Uses | 2OHOA has been used as:- a modulator of the sphingolipid and glycerophospholipid pathway to study its effects on myelination in mice Charcot–Marie–Tooth type 1A (CMT1A) myelinopathy and myelinating dorsal root ganglia cultures
- in biophysical studies to study its effects on artificial membranes
- to study its interactions with major membrane lipid films
| | Biochem/physiol Actions | 2-Hydroxy oleic acid (2OHOA) is a derivative of oleic acid. It plays a role in membrane organization, alterations in?membrane fluidity, an increase of the tendency to form non-lamellar structures, and remodeling of microdomains by interacting with the lipids in membranes of pathological cells. |
