Parinaric acid is a conjugated tetraenoic fatty acid found in the seeds of the genus *Impatiens*. It is a colorless oil that is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. It is a powerful antioxidant and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anticancer effects. Parinaric acid is also a potent inhibitor of the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is involved in the production of prostaglandins, which are inflammatory mediators. This makes parinaric acid a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, such as arthritis and asthma. Parinaric acid is also being studied for its potential to prevent cardiovascular disease and cancer. It is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme lipoxygenase (LOX), which is involved in the production of leukotrienes, which are inflammatory mediators that contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease. Parinaric acid has also been shown to inhibit the growth of cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. The synthesis of parinaric acid is a complex process that involves the conversion of linoleic acid to parinaric acid. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme linoleate desaturase. Parinaric acid is also produced by some microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. Because of its unique structure and biological activities, parinaric acid has become a subject of intense research interest. It is being studied for its potential therapeutic applications in a wide range of diseases, including cancer, inflammatory diseases, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative diseases. '
