cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt  (Synonyms: Palmitoleoylcarnitine (C16:1))

cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt (Palmitoleoylcarnitine (C16:1)) is a long-chain acylcarnitine controlling fatty acid metabolism and mitochondrial function. cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt accumulates in colorectal cancer cells. cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt exists in plants and mediates lipid anabolic development. cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt acts as a metabolic marker for type 1 diabetes and inflammatory bowel disease plasma. cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt can be used for research on diabetes, metabolism, and inflammatory bowel disease^{[1][2][3][4][5]}.

cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt (Palmitoleoylcarnitine (C16:1)) (1-7 days) is present in developing Arabidopsis thaliana (WS ecotype) seedlings at a content of 2.66 pg/mg DW^[3].
cis-9-Hexadecenoylcarnitine inner salt (Palmitoleoylcarnitine (C16:1)) (1-8 h) is significantly upregulated in SA-11-treated HCT-116 colorectal cancer cells, and its increased levels correlate with reduced HCT-116 cell viability^[4].
