EPA chemical information | Information provided by: ofmpub.epa.gov (external link) |
pharmacological effects | decaenoic acid mainly promotes glucose uptake by adipocytes and skeletal muscle cells through AMPK pathway. Pentadecanoic acid does not affect the fasting blood glucose level of type 2 diabetic mice, but it can improve hyperinsulinemia, protect islet cells, reduce serum cholesterol, reduce fat accumulation, and improve the inflammatory state of diabetic mice. |
biological activity | Pentadecanoic acid is an endogenous saturated fatty acid. It is a plant metabolite, food ingredient, macroflea metabolite, human serum metabolite and algal metabolite. |
