16:0 Lyso PC A85675 (Previously 855675) 1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine

16:0 Lyso PC, also known as 1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, is a remarkable phospholipase-mediated hydrolyzed phosphocholine. This lipid features a saturated fatty acid—palmitic acid (16:0)—as its tail, which is generated through the hydrolysis of the sn-2 acyl chain of phosphatidylcholine (PC) by phospholipase A2. A crucial component of oxidized low-density lipoprotein, 16:0 Lyso PC plays a significant role in inflammatory diseases and atherosclerosis and is a substrate for Autotaxin/LysoPLD, generating lysophosphatidic acid, which is essential for cell motility.

At Avanti Research, we are dedicated to supporting groundbreaking scientific research with top-tier products. Our commitment to excellence ensures that each batch of 16:0 Lyso PC meets the highest standards of purity and performance.
