octanoic acid

octanoic acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Octanoic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Ischemia, Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent, Diabetes, Cardiomyopathies and Obesity. The involved functions are known as Anabolism, 5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide mutase activity, Citric Acid Cycle, Metabolic Inhibition and Excretory function. Octanoic acid often locates in Pore, Protoplasm, Endothelium, Mitochondria and Muscle. The associated genes with octanoic acid are P4HTM gene, CPT1A gene, HADH gene, ACSL1 Gene and CD36 gene. The related lipids are Fatty Acids, Nonesterified Fatty Acids, Oleates, Palmitates and hexanoic acid.
