as 9-PAHSA,3 13-LAHLA dose treatments demonstrated an
improved IC50 in IL-6 reduction, suggesting that unsaturated
FAHFAs may be more superior in suppressing acute
chemistry and stereochemistry in LAHLA and how this shapes
the lipids’ ability to mediate acute inflammation were made
possible through synthesis. Three members of LAHLAs, 9-
LAHLA, 13-LAHLA, and15-LAHLA have been synthesized to
provide material for testing and analysis. In analyzing FAHFA-
enriched oat oil, 9- and 13-LAHLA are found to be naturally
racemic mixtures, while 15-LAHLA is generated as a single
optical form, S-15-LAHLA. Interestingly, the stereochemistry
of 15-LAHLA was found to be the opposite of that reported
for digalactosyldiacylglycerol that possessed embedded 15-
LAHLA. In addition, 15-LAHLA, specifically S-15-LAHLA,
demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory activities and warrants
further study of the new method of laboratory access through
synthesis.
