Product information "gamma-Linolenic Acid ethyl ester"
gamma-Linolenic acid (GLA) is an omega-6 fatty acid which can be elongated to arachidonic acid for endogenous eicosanoid synthesis. It is a weak leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor antagonist, inhibiting [3H]-LTB4 binding to porcine neutrophil membranes with a Ki value of 1 µM. GLA produces 53% inhibition at a 1 mg/kg dose in an in vivo model of LTB4-induced bronchoconstriction. GLA ethyl ester is an esterified version of the free acid which is less water soluble but more amenable for the formulation of GLA-containing diets.Formal Name: 6Z,9Z,12Z-octadecatrienoic acid, ethyl ester.
