cholesteryl homo-r-linolenate

Cholesteryl homo-γ-linolenate, a cholesterol ester, accumulates in the adrenal gland of rabbits on a linolenic acid-rich diet. In HIV-infected humans, levels of cholesteryl homo-γ-linolenate decrease and positively correlate with cognitive decline.

9(R)-HODE cholesteryl ester, originally extracted from atherosclerotic lesions, has an oxidized fatty acid portion that may result from either enzymatic lipoxygenation or random lipid peroxidation. It serves as a standard for analyzing chiral HODE cholesteryl esters.

13(R)-HODE cholesteryl ester was originally extracted from atherosclerotic lesions. It remains uncertain whether the oxidized fatty acid portion of the molecule results from enzymatic lipoxygenation or from random lipid peroxidation. 13(R)-HODE cholesteryl ester can be used as a standard for analysis of chiral HODE cholesteryl esters.

Cholesteryl Linolenate is a human endogenous metabolite.
