Erucic acid 是单不饱和脂肪酸，分离自萝卜的种子。Erucic acid可以容易地穿过血脑屏障，使大脑中长链脂肪酸的积累正常化。Erucic acid能够改善认知障碍并有效预防痴呆。

Increased levels of erucic acid (22:1n9) have been found in the red blood cell membranes of autistic subjects with developmental regression (PMID: 16581239 ). Erucic acid is broken down long-chain acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenase, which is produced in the liver. This enzyme breaks this long chain fatty acid into shorter-chain fatty acids. human infants have relatively low amounts of this enzyme and because of this, babies should not be given foods high in erucic acid. Erucic acid is found to be associated with isovaleric acidemia, which is an inborn error of metabolism.
