Notes: A PPARγ agonist and nitrated form of linoleic acid; found in human red blood cells and plasma; induces PPARγ-dependent gene expression in a reporter assay using MCF-7 cells expressing human PPARγ (EC50 = 0.045 µM); inhibits LPS-induced secretion of IL-6, TNF-α, and CCL2 in THP-1 and RAW 264.7 macrophages at 2.5 µM; inhibits LPS-induced NF-κB transcriptional activity in a reporter assay using RAW 264.7 macrophages and TNF-α-induced increases in VCAM-1 in HUVECs; increases the levels of HO-1 in primary human aortic endothelial cells at 1, 5, or 10 µM
