Biological Activity
10-OAHSA is a newly discovered endogenous lipid categorized within the group of branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs). This specific FAHFA comprises oleic acid esterified to 10-hydroxy stearic acid. It stands out among its FAHFA counterparts for its potential bioactive properties, similar to other members of its family such as PAHSAs, which are notably prevalent in the adipose tissue of AG4OX mice exhibiting glucose tolerance due to overexpression of the Glut4 glucose transporter specifically in adipose tissue. Like other FAHFAs, 10-OAHSA may play significant roles in enhancing glucose tolerance, stimulating insulin secretion, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects, which suggests its importance in managing metabolic syndrome and inflammation.
Safety & Regulatory
For Research Use Only (RUO). Not for therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical use. Wear appropriate PPE and consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to handling.
It is not recommended to store DMSO stock solutions at room temperature. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot into single-use volumes and store at −20 °C (or −80 °C for sensitive compounds). Room-temperature storage accelerates chemical degradation and moisture uptake. When ready to use, thaw an aliquot at room temperature, use immediately, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Use a bath-type ultrasonic cleaner at standard cleaning frequency (37–40 kHz). Bath sonication is gentler than a probe sonicator and avoids sample overheating. Sonicate in 5–10 second intervals, checking solubility between pulses, for no more than 2–3 minutes total. Warm the bath to 37 °C if solubility remains poor.
