2-hydroxy Tricosanoic acid is a hydroxylated fatty acid that has been found in the inner bark of E. globulus, the leaves of wild, kiyomi, and zweigeltrepe grape vines, C. elegans, and Pseudosuberites and S. massa sea sponges. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1713]

2-Hydroxytricosanoic Acid is a long chain saturated fatty acid found in sea cucumber and is known for exhibiting cytotoxic effects. Inhibits of cell proliferation.

ChEBI: 2-hydroxytricosanoic acid is a 2-hydroxy fatty acid that is tricosanoic acid substituted by a hydroxy group at position 2. It has a role as a marine metabolite and an animal metabolite. It is functionally related to a tricosanoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 2-hydroxytricosanoate.
