(±)13-HODE cholesteryl ester was originally extracted from atherosclerotic lesions and shown to be produced by Cu2+-catalyzed oxidation of LDL. Later studies determined that 15-LO from rabbit reticulocytes and human monocytes were able to metabolize cholesteryl linoleate, a major component of LDL, to 13-HODE...

(±)13-HODE is one of the two racemic monohydroxy fatty acids resulting from the non-enzymatic oxidation of linoleic acid. It is the principle hydroxylated fatty acid in human psoriatic skin scales, with a mean concentration of 17 ng/mg.Formal Name: (±)-13-hydroxy-9Z,11E-octadecadienoic acid. CAS Number: 18104-45-5....

Borofalan is a radiation sensitizer that contains 10B, a stable isotope of boron. It sensitizes B16/F10 melanoma cells to fast and thermal neutron radiation when used at a concentration of 50 µg/ml. Borofalan (300 mg/kg) selectively accumulates in sarcoma tissues over blood, muscle, skin, liver, and brain tissue in...
