SMU127 is an agonist of the toll-likereceptor 1 2 (TLR1 2) heterodimer.1It induces NF-κB signaling in cells expressing human TLR2 (EC50= 0.55 μM) but not cells expressing human TLR3, -4, -5, -7, or -8 when used at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 100 μM. SMU127 induces the production of TNF-α in isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) when used at concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1 μM.In vivo, SMU127 (0.1 mg animal) reduces tumor volume in a 4T1 murine mammary carcinoma model. 1.Chen, Z., Cen, X., Yang, J., et al.Structure-based discovery of a specific TLR1-TLR2 small molecule agonist from the ZINC drug library databaseChem.

Palmitic acid-13C is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of palmitic acid by GC- or LC-MS. Palmitic acid-13C contains 13C at the C2 position and has been used in the study of free fatty acid incorporation into phospholipid fatty acids in soil microbes.1 Palmitic acid is a 16-carbon saturated fatty acid. It comprises approximately 25% of human total plasma lipids.2 It increases protein levels of COX-2 in RAW 264.7 cells when used at a concentration of 75 μM.3 Palmitic acid is involved in the acylation of proteins to anchor membrane-bound proteins to the lipid bilayer.3,4,5,6,7
