Trans-Vaccenic acid (Standard)
Trans-Vaccenic acid (Standard) is the analytical standard of trans-Vaccenic acid. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. trans-Vaccenic acid is a naturally occurring trans fatty acid (TFA). trans-Vaccenic acid inhibits nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell growth and induces apoptosis through the inhibition of Bad/Akt phosphorylation. trans-Vaccenic acid is a precursor for the synthesis of saturated fatty acid in the rumen and of conjugated Linoleic acid (CLA) at the tissue level. trans-Vaccenic acid exerts hypolipidemic effects in a rat model of obesity.
