omega-3 Arachidonic acid ethyl ester, in ethanol, 98% is a rare polyunsaturated fatty acid found in very small amounts in dietary sources. Omega-3 fatty acids are known to be essential for the growth and development of infants, and they protect against heart disease, blood clots, high blood pressure, and inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. In human platelet membranes, omega-3 arachidonic acid inhibits arachidonyl-CoA synthetase with a Ki of 14 microM. It also inhibits arachidonoyl-CoA synthetase in calf brain extract with an IC50 of approximately 5 microM. Omega-3 ethyl arachidonate is the more lipophilic form of the free acid.
