| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Saturated fatty acids are synthesized by both plants and animals from acetyl coenzyme A as a form of long-term energy storage. Palmitic acid is a common 16-carbon saturated fat that represents 10-20% of the normal human dietary fat intake, and approximately 25% of the total plasma fatty acids in plasma lipoproteins.1 Saturated free fatty acids induce the expression of cyclooxygenase-2.2 Palmitic acid methyl ester (MP) is a fatty acid ester whose concentration in cells is modulated by methanol. In studies with isolated Kupffer cells, MP inhibits phagocytosis and decreases cell viability. In cells treated with lipopolysaccharide, it also decreases secretion of interleukin-10, TNF-α, nitric oxide, and prostaglandin E2. This effect is thought to occur by the inhibition of NF-κB.3 | [Chemical Properties]

Methyl palmitate (PAME), a fatty acid ester of palmitic acid, is a muscurinic receptors antagonist. Methyl palmitate functions as a vasodilator and relaxes the arterioles in retina upon electrical depolarization. In the superior cervical ganglion, methyl palmitate modulates nicotinic receptor. Endogenous methyl palmitate modulates nicotinic receptor-mediated transmission in the superior cervical ganglion. PAME activates Kv7 channels and promotes perivascular adipose tissue. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Nonflammable | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Methyl palmitate has anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effect. Methyl palmitate prevents bleomycin-induced lung inflammation and fibrosis in rats, by inhibiting NF-κB . Methyl palmitate also prevents CCl4-induced liver fibrosis linked to reduced TGF-β . | [Synthesis]
At present, there are two main methods to obtain methyl palmitate, one is to prepare fatty acid methyl ester mixture by transesterification reaction between palm oil and methanol under alkaline catalytic condition, which is used for biodiesel; the other o |
