11 (Z),14 (Z) -Eicosadienoic Acid methyl ester
This methyl ester derivative of the ω-6 PUFA 11 (Z),14 (Z) -eicosadienoic acid offers enhanced lipid solubility for research. The parent fatty acid acts as a competitive inhibitor of IMP dehydrogenase (Ki=3.1 μM) and an LTB4 receptor antagonist (Ki=3.0 μM) in vitro. Its endogenous metabolites, eicosatrienoic acids, function as vasodilators, linking this pathway to cardiovascular and inflammation studies.
