Description：Stearic acid is a long-chain dietary saturated fatty acid that can significantly reduce visceral fat by inducing apoptosis of preadipocytes. Stearic acid can be used in the study of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.
In Vitro：Stearic acid (50 μM; 48 h) increases apoptosis of 3T3L1 preadipocytes, decreases the expression of cIAP2 and Bcl2, and increases the expression of Bax[1]. Stearic acid (0-200 μM; 48 h) shows a dose-dependent cytotoxicity to 3T3L1 preadipocytes starting at 35 μM and reaching a maximum at 100 μM, and increases caspase-3 activity in preadipocytes after 48 h of treatment[1].
In Vivo：Stearic acid (17% stearic acid/3% safflower oil diet, ad libitum; 18 weeks and 3 days) reduces bone mineral density, abdominal fat content, and serum glucose concentration, and increases serum monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 levels in female athymic mice[1].
