    Product Description

    all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-DPA, also known as osbond acid, is an isomer of DPA. It is an ω-6 fatty acid formed by the elongation and desaturation of arachidonic acid (Item No. 90010). Levels of this fatty acid may be diminished during fatty acid desaturase syndrome and this may affect development.1 Upregulated expression of hepatic elongation of very long fatty acids protein 6 and increased levels of very long chain fatty acids, including all-cis-4,7,10,13,16-DPA, are characteristic of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, a preneoplastic condition of hepatocellular carcinoma.2
