Behenic acid
Behenic acid, also known as docosanoate or 1-docosanoic acid, is a member of the class of compounds known as very long-chain fatty acids. Very long-chain fatty acids are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains at least 22 carbon atoms. Thus, behenic acid is considered to be a fatty acid lipid molecule. Behenic acid is practically insoluble (in water) and a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Behenic acid can be found in a number of food items such as rice, opium poppy, pepper (c. frutescens), and gram bean, which makes behenic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Behenic acid can be found primarily in blood, feces, and urine. Behenic acid (also docosanoic acid) is a carboxylic acid, the saturated fatty acid with formula C21H43COOH. In appearance, it consists of white to cream color crystals or powder with a melting point of 80 °C and boiling point of 306 °C . Behenic acid, also docosanoic acid, is a normal carboxylic acid, a fatty acid with formula C21H43COOH. It is an important constituent of the behen oil extracted from the seeds of the Ben-oil tree, and it is so named from the Persian month Bahman when the roots of this tree were harvested. Behenic acid has been identified in the human placenta (PMID:32033212). Docosanoic acid is poorly absorbed, and a cholesterol-raising saturated fatty acid in humans. Docosanoic acid is poorly absorbed, and a cholesterol-raising saturated fatty acid in humans.
Isosorbide Mononitrate
Isosorbide mononitrate (ISMN), sold under the names Imdur and Monoket, among others, is an organic nitrate used principally in the prophylactic treatment of angina pectoris (ischemic chest pain). ISMN is an active metabolite of isosorbide dinitrate and exerts qualitatively similar effects. Like other organic nitrates, ISMN acts as a prodrug for its active metabolite, nitric oxide, which mediates the therapeutic action of ISMN. Nitric oxide works on both arteries and veins, but predominantly veins. Nitric oxide functions by relaxing veins and reducing the central venous pressure, thereby causing venous pooling and a decrease in the venous return to the heart, thus decreasing cardiac preload (PMID: 31643263). The net effect when administering ISMN is therefore a reduced workload for the heart and an improvement in the oxygen supply/demand balance of the myocardium. ISMN is not subject to first pass metabolism in the human liver. Detectable metabolites include isosorbide, sorbitol, and 2-glucuronide of mononitrate, which are pharmacologically inactive (PMID: 1449102). Research on ISMN as a cervical ripener to reduce time at hospital to birth is supportive (PMID: 23983763). Isosorbide mononitrate is only found in individuals who have consumed or used this drug.
