General description

Palmitic acid (PA), a saturated fatty acid present in the human body, accounts for 20-30% of total fatty acids (FA) in membrane phospholipids (PL) and adipose triacylglycerols (TAG). It is one of the main components of palm oil however, significant amounts of PA are also found in meat and dairy products, cocoa butter, and olive oil. PA is also present in breast milk. PA performs various fundamental biological functions at cellular and tissue levels.

Application

Palmitic acid has been used:
  • to study its effects on monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) expression in adipocytes and THP-1 macrophages
  • to stimulate lipotoxicity in primary rat hepatocytes
  • in Et-bovine serum albumin (BSA) solution along with retinoic acid (RA) and retinol to study its effects on spermatogenesis or meiotic progression

Saturated fatty acids (SFAs) induce hepatocyte cell death, wherein oxidative stress is mechanistically involved. Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) is a master transcriptional regulator of cellular antioxidant defense enzymes. Therefore, Nrf2 activation is regarded as an effective strategy against

Although short-term incubation of hepatocytes with oleic acid (OA) stimulates secretion of apolipoprotein B100 (apoB100), exposure to higher doses of OA for longer periods inhibits secretion in association with induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Palmitic acid (PA) induces ER

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is characterized by dyslipidemia with elevated free fatty acids (FFAs). Loss of podocytes is a hallmark of diabetic nephropathy, and podocytes are highly susceptible to saturated FFAs but not to protective, monounsaturated FFAs. We report that

Recent data indicate that peripheral insulin sensitivity may be influenced by dietary fat quality and skeletal muscle phospholipid fatty acid composition. During a health survey of 70-year-old men insulin sensitivity was measured by the euglycaemic hyperinsulinaemic clamp technique and the
