1-Palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PE is a naturally-occurring lysophospholipid. [1] It inhibits the growth of L. donovani promastigotes (GIC50 = 8 uM). [2]1-Palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PE serum levels are decreased in a mouse model of alcohol-induced liver injury and in a hepatocellular carcinoma mouse xenograft model. [3] Human serum levels are also decreased immediately and 14 hours following an exercise regimen of 2.5 hours of running for three days. [1]1-Palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PE has been used as an internal standard for the quantification of saturated lysophosphoethanolamines. [4]
1-Palmitoyl-d9-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PE serves as an internal standard for quantifying 1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PE, a lysophospholipid naturally found to inhibit L. donovani promastigotes growth (GI50= 8 µM). Its levels are reduced in mice after alcohol-induced liver damage, in hepatocellular carcinoma mouse xenografts, and in humans following a rigorous three-day exercise regimen of 2.5 hours running daily and 14 hours post-regimen. This compound is also applied in measuring saturated lysophosphoethanolamines, highlighting its broad utility in biochemical research and disease model studies.
