13Z,16Z-Docosadienoic acid is a natural ω-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) formed through a 2-carbon chain elongation of arachi donic acid. 13Z,16Z-Docosadienoic acid acts as an agonist of free fatty acid receptor 4 (FFAR4, also known as GPR120) [1].
Free fatty acids act as a source of energy and also function as signaling molecules which involved in regulating energy homeostasis. The endogenous ligands for FFAR4 are ω3-FAs, such as α-LA,DHA and EPA. FFAR4 has been involved in diverse physiological process such as anti-inflammation, insulin sensitization, release of gut peptides and alternation of food preference [2].
13Z,16Z-Docosadienoic acid strongly inhibited the secretion of ghrelin by isolated mouse gastric cells [1]. Dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) ameliorate several human diseases such as coronary heart disease, autoimmune and inflammatory disorders, diabetes, obesity and cancer [3]. This 20:2 PUFA has already been identified in fish, mammals, plants, and anaerobic fungi.
