General description

C16-02:0 DG, also called as 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (HAG), is an alkylacylglycerol and a bioactive lipid. Structurally, HAG contains primary alcohol group at the C3 position.

Application

C16-02:0 DG or 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (HAG) may be used to prevent 1-O-acyl-NAS formation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

C16-02:0 DG or 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (HAG) is a diacylglycerol (DAG) antagonist with a potential to inhibit protein kinase C (PKC) activity. It also has an ability to inhibit growth of human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60. HAG serves as a precursor in the biosynthesis of platelet-activating factor.

The human promyelocytic leukemia cell line HL-60 can be differentiated to cells resembling either neutrophils or mononuclear phagocytes by a diverse group of stimuli. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. We report that 1-0-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol inhibits the growth of HL-60 cells

A novel lysosomal phospholipase A(2) (LPLA2) with specificity toward phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine was previously purified and cloned. LPLA2 transfers sn-1 or sn-2 acyl groups of phospholipids to the C1 hydroxyl of the short-chain ceramide N-acetylsphingosine (NAS) under acidic conditions. The
