Product Description: 1-Myristoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (14:0 Lyso PE) is a lysophospholipid with a phosphoethanolamine head and a myristoyl tail. The free amine group can conjugate with NHS active ester or coupled with carboxylic acid in the presence of a coupling agent. It also induces transient increases in intracellular calcium in PC12 cells [1]. Serum levels of 1-Myristoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine are elevated in patients with malignant breast cancer compared to healthy controls[2].
Formula: C19H40NO7P
