    Description

    Calcium stearate is an orally active long-chain dietary saturated fatty acid that can significantly reduce visceral fat by inducing apoptosis of preadipocytes. Calcium stearate can be used in the study of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases[1].

    In Vitro

    Calcium stearate (50 μM; 48 h) increases apoptosis of 3T3L1 preadipocytes, decreases the expression of cIAP2 and Bcl2, and increases the expression of Bax[1].
    Calcium stearate (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].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Stearic acid (17% stearic acid/3% safflower oil diet, p.o.; 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].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
