Biological Activity
Docosapentaenoic acid (DPA), a 22-carbon fatty acid primarily found in fish oil, constitutes a minor fraction of the total unsaturated fatty acids in human serum, with concentrations ranging from 0.1% to 1%, which can increase through dietary supplementation. The all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-DPA variant, also known as Austrian acid, represents a specific isomer of DPA and falls into the omega-6 category, synthesized through the elongation and desaturation of arachidonic acid. In conditions such as fatty acid desaturase syndrome, its levels may decrease, potentially influencing development. Furthermore, conditions like nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, a precursor to hepatocellular carcinoma, are marked by enhanced expression of the hepatic elongase very long fatty acid protein 6 and increased concentrations of very long-chain fatty acids, including all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-DPA.
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.
Dissociation consent (Kd) reflects the affinity of a compound for its target. In some cases, it can be equivalent to Ki.
Half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) refers to the concentration of the inhibitor which is required to inhibit a given biological or biochemical function by half.
Need this compound in a format that drops straight into your assay? We can tailor formulation, chemistry, and documentation so your results stay consistent across runs and re-orders.
- Format options: solid or pre-dissolved solution (choose solvent), target concentration, aliquots, light/moisture-protected packaging
- Chemistry options: free base/acid vs salt forms, hydrate/solvate preference, stereoisomer control (single enantiomer or racemate), close analogs
- Add-on labels & handles: D/¹³C/¹⁵N isotopes (LC-MS/internal standards), azide/alkyne or other functional handles for conjugation
- QC & documentation: standard COA or enhanced analytical pack (HPLC/LC-MS/NMR), chiral purity, residual solvents, water content (KF), method-specific specs
- Scale & continuity: mg to gram scale, bulk pricing, lot reservation, repeat-order continuity
