Oleic acid belongs to the fatty acids and conjugates, a subclass of fatty acyls within the organic compounds. This endogenous monounsaturated fatty acid (PMC11832627 ) has the formula C18H34O2 and an average molecular weight of 282.46 g/mol. It exists as a liquid at room temperature. Biologically, it is an unsaturated fatty acid (PMC9136261 , PMC3876569 ) and an antioxidant (PMC12192122 ). It is detected in the skin, stratum corneum, adipose tissue, intestine, liver, muscle, pancreas, placenta, prostate, and skeletal muscle. It acts as an inhibitor or ligand for several protein targets, including glycogen transfer protein (GLTP), myelin P2 protein (PMP2), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARA), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARD).
Industrially, oleic acid is used as a surfactant (PMC8703238 , PMC9696840 ), solvent (PMC9659074 ), reducing agent (PMC9879203 ), emulsifier, lubricating agent, fragrance, binder, solubility enhancer, softener, conditioner, pH regulating agent, anti-adhesive/cohesive, flavouring and nutrient, and cleaning agent. It is used in polyamide and is present in polyvinyl chloride and polyethylene terephthalate; it is released in polypropylene, while results are inconclusive for high-density polyethylene and not detected in polystyrene. It is found in indoor air, ceilings, household cleaning and consumer products, and food processing and cookware. Exposure occurs via touch, oral, and inhalation routes.
Health effects associated with oleic acid include dermatitis (PMC5796020 ), heart failure (PMC8955125 ), and cancer (PMC4631807 ), though it is also linked to a decrease in inflammation (PMC10804595 ).

Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth with the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Possible signs and symptoms include a lump, abnormal bleeding, prolonged cough, unexplained weight loss, and a change in bowel movements. There are over 100 types of cancers affect humans. The risk of developing certain cancers can be reduced by not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, not drinking too much alcohol, eating plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole grains, vaccination against certain infectious diseases, not eating too much processed and red meat and avoiding too much sunlight exposure. Cancer is often treated with some combination of radiation therapy, surgery, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. The majority of cancers, some 90–95% of cases, are due to genetic mutations from environmental and lifestyle factors. The remaining 5–10% are due to inherited genetics.
