Lyso-PAF C-16 is a biologically inactive precursor of platelet activating factor.

2-O-Ethyl PAF C-16, a homolog of Platelet-activating Factor (PAF) and competitive ligand for the Platelet-activating Factor Receptor (PAFR), inhibits the binding of PAF antagonist WEB 2086 to PAFR with an IC50 of 21 nM [1].

16-O-Acetylpolyporenic acid C is a natural product and can be used as a standard reference.

Methylcarbamyl PAF C-16 is a stable analog of PAF C-16 with a half-life greater than 100 minutes in platelet poor plasma due to its resistance to degradation by PAF-AH. It is nearly equipotent with PAF C-16 in its ability to induce platelet aggregation both in isolated platelets and in platelet-rich plasma. In NRK-49 cells overexpressing the PAF receptor, both PAF C-16 and methylcarbamyl PAF C-16 cause the induction of c-myc and c-fos and the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase. Methylcarbamyl PAF C-16 induces G1 phase cell cycle arrest, suggesting a potential role for PAF in the inhibition of oncogenic transformation.

PAF C-16 is a naturally occurring phospholipid produced upon stimulation through two distinct pathways known as the remodeling and 'de novo' pathways. It is a potent mediator of neutrophil migration and the production of reactive oxygen species and IL-6. Pathological processes involving PAF include necrotizing enterocolitis

2-O-methyl PAF C-16 is a synthetic analog of platelet-activating factor (PAF) featuring a methyl group attached via an ether linkage at the sn-2 position. While the specific biological activities of 2-O-methyl PAF C-16 remain undercharacterized, studies with its C-18 counterpart have demonstrated its ability to modulate various biological processes. These processes include reducing plasma membrane fluidity and hindering the invasiveness of tumor cells in embryonic chick hearts. Furthermore, in rat astrocytes, the C-18 analog prompts the release of significant amounts of nitric oxide (NO) through a mechanism that involves the activation of nitric oxide synthase (NOS).

Sphingosine (d16:1), an unconventional sphingolipid, is synthesized through enzymatic reactions starting with the condensation of myristoyl-CoA and serine by serine palmitoyltransferase long-chain base subunit 3 (SPTLC3), which shows a preference for myristoyl-CoA. This compound is found in minute quantities in its free form in human plasma and as a component of various plasma sphingolipids, such as sphingosine-1-phosphate, ceramides, sphingomyelins, and in brain cerebrosides, albeit at lower concentrations than the more common d18:1 sphingoid base. Sphingosine (d16:1) acts as an inhibitor of PKC in mixed micelle assays and diminishes superoxide production triggered by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate in isolated human neutrophils, as well as inhibiting the growth of CHO cells with IC50 values of 1 and 3.2 µM, respectively. Additionally, the concentration of sphingolipids containing sphingosine (d16:1) in the plasma is linked to the dietary consumption of saturated fatty acids and protein among ethnic Chinese populations.

PAF (C16) is a potent MAPK and MEK/ERK activator that induces increased vascular permeability. PAF (C16) (PAF (C16)) is a platelet-activating factor, a phospholipid-derived mediator and a ligand for PAF G protein-coupled receptor (PAFR). PAF (C16) has shown anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory activity in vitro, inhibiting Caspase-dependent apoptosis by interacting with its receptor (PAF-R) to perform cell signaling.

COH29 (RNR Inhibitor COH29) is an orally available, aromatically substituted thiazole and inhibitor of the human ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon oral administration, the RNR inhibitor COH29 binds to the ligand-binding pocket of the RNR M2 subunit (hRRM2) near the C-terminal tail. Inhibition of RNR activity decreases the pool of deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates available for DNA synthesis. The resulting decrease in DNA synthesis causes cell cycle arrest and growth inhibition. In addition, this agent may inhibit the nuclear enzyme poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) 1, which prevents the repair of damaged DNA and causes both the accumulation of single and double strand DNA breaks and the induction of apoptosis.

MET Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor PF-04217903 is an orally bioavailabe, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potential antineoplastic activity.

NHC-triphosphate triammonium is an active phosphorylated intracellular metabolite of β-d-N4-Hydroxycytidine (NHC) as a triphosphate form[1]. NHC-triphosphate triammonium is a weak alternative substrate for the viral polymerase and can be incorporated into HCV replicon RNA[1][2]. In an intracellular metabolism assay, HCV replicon cells are treated with 10 μM 3H-labeled NHC, and intracellular nucleotide levels are determined after 1, 2 and 8 hours incubations. NHC is rapidly convered into the mono-, di-, and triphosphate forms, and NHC-TP reaches up to 71.12 pM after 8 hours[1].NHC-triphosphate triammonium (NHC-TP) (5-40 μM) absence leads to full-length polymerization products, it can be a weak alternative substrate. In addition, incorporation of NHC-TP instead of CTP increases the molecular weight of the polymerization product by 16 (one extra oxygen) for each event and an obvious electrophoretic shift is observed in cell-free HCV NS5B polymerization reactions[1].Huh-7 cells are incubated with (10-50 μM; 4 h) NHC or a McGuigan phosphoramidate prodrug of NHC. Intracellular levels of the parental compounds and phosphorylated metabolites are measured using LC-MS/MS. Small amounts of NHC-monophosphate (MP) and NHC-diphosphate (DP) can be observed, while NHC-triphosphate triammonium remains the most abundant metabolite[2].NHC-triphosphate triammonium (NHC-TP) metabolite may directly target the viral polymerase and behave as a nonobligate chain terminator. It plays a prominent role in inhibiting early negative-strand RNA synthesis, either through chain termination or mutagenesis, which may in turn interfere with correct replicase complex formation.

Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are newly identified endogenous lipids regulated by fasting and high-fat feeding and associated with insulin sensitivity. Structurally, these esters are comprised of a C-16 or C-18 fatty acid (e.g., palmitoleic, palmitic, oleic, or stearic acid) linked to a hydroxylated C-16 or C-18 lipid. 9-PAHSA is a FAHFA in which palmitic acid is esterified to 9-hydroxy stearic acid. PAHSAs are the most abundant forms of FAHFA in serum as well as white and brown adipose tissues of glucose tolerant AG4OX mice, which overexpress Glut4 specifically in adipose tissue. 9-PAHSA is the predominant isomer of PAHSA in wild type and AG4OX mice. It is found in humans and is reduced in the serum and adipose tissues of insulin-resistant humans. 9-PAHSA improves glucose tolerance, stimulates insulin secretion, and has anti-inflammatory effects in mice.

(R)-Butaprost (free acid) is a prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) analog exhibiting high EP2 receptor subtype selectivity, commonly used to delineate EP receptor expression in human and animal tissues and cells. In 1986, Gardiner induced significant confusion regarding its structure by incorrectly identifying the selective C-16 epimer as (R)-butaprost (refer to the British Journal of Pharmacology, page 46, as TR 4979, and notes). By removing the methyl ester and restoring the native carboxylic acid at C-1, the binding affinity for prostaglandin receptors was enhanced, given such free acids typically display 10 to 100 times greater affinity than their ester counterparts. Although not extensively studied pharmacologically, (R)-butaprost is generally viewed as the less active C-16 epimer, with careful studies conducted later in the United States and Japan ultimately establishing the correct active structure as the 16(S) epimer.

KRC-108 is a multiple kinase inhibitor. KRC-108 is a potent inhibitor of Ron, Flt3 and TrkA as well as c-Met. KRC-108 inhibited oncogenic c-Met M1250T and Y1230D more strongly than wild type c-Met. The anti-proliferative activity of KRC-108 was measured by performing a cytotoxicity assay on a panel of cancer cell lines. The GI(50) values (i.e., 50% inhibition of cell growth) for KRC-108 ranged from 0.01 to 4.22 μM for these cancer cell lines. KRC-108 was also effective for the inhibition of tumor growth in human HT29 colorectal cancer and NCI-H441 lung cancer xenograft models in athymic BALB/c nu/nu mice. This molecule should serve as a useful lead for inhibitors targeting kinases and may lead to new therapeutics for the treatment of cancer.

EPI-X4, an endogenous peptide fragment of human serum albumin (amino acids 408-423), serves as an antagonist to the chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4). It effectively prevents calcium mobilization and receptor internalization triggered by chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 12 (CXCL12) in HEK293 cells with CXCR4 expression, at concentrations between 0.8 and 1,000 µM. Moreover, EPI-X4 hampers the CXCL12-driven migration of both Jurkat T cells and human CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells. In an acute allergic airway hypereosinophilia mouse model, EPI-X4 intrinsically decreases Cxcr4-dependent inflammatory cell infiltration in airways at a dose of 16 µmol/kg. Additionally, increased urinary EPI-X4 levels, inversely related to glomerular filtration rate (GFR), are observed in chronic kidney disease patients, indicating its potential biomarker role.

Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) are lipids influenced by dietary changes, playing a crucial role in insulin sensitivity. These compounds typically consist of a C-16 or C-18 fatty acid (for example, palmitoleic, palmitic, oleic, or stearic acid) linked to a hydroxy fatty acid with the same carbon chain length. 13-PAHSA, a derivative where palmitic acid is esterified to 13-hydroxy stearic acid, is notably prevalent in the adipose tissue of glucose-tolerant AG4OX mice, which exhibit enhanced glucose transport via the overexpression of the Glut4 glucose transporter. This observation, along with the metabolic benefits seen from other FAHFAs—including improved glucose tolerance, stimulated insulin secretion, and anti-inflammatory properties—suggests that 13-PAHSA may function as a bioactive lipid beneficial in managing metabolic syndrome and inflammation.

Benastatin B is a polyketide synthase-derived benastatin that has been found in Streptomyces and has diverse biological activities. It inhibits glutathione S-transferase (GST; Ki = 3.7 µM for the rat liver enzyme).2 Benastatin B also inhibits the transglycosylase activity of A. baumannii, C. difficile, E. coli, and S. aureus recombinant penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs; IC50s = 16, 53.3, 30.7, and 31.6 µM, respectively).3 It is active against several bacteria, including methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA; MIC = 3.12 µg/ml).

Branched fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFAs) have emerged as significant regulators of metabolic processes, influenced by dietary changes such as fasting and high-fat diets, and are linked to improved insulin sensitivity in mice. These compounds typically feature a fatty acid chain, either C-16 or C-18 in length (for example, palmitoleic, palmitic, oleic, or stearic acid), esterified to a hydroxy fatty acid of similar length. A specific FAHFA, 12-POHSA, involves the esterification of palmitoleic acid to the 12th carbon of stearic acid. Notably, 12-POHSA levels are markedly higher in the serum of AG4OX mice, which exhibit enhanced glucose tolerance due to overexpression of the Glut4 glucose transporter in adipose tissue. Given the capacity of FAHFAs to enhance glucose tolerance, stimulate insulin secretion, and exert anti-inflammatory actions, 12-POHSA holds potential as a bioactive lipid implicated in managing metabolic syndrome and inflammation.
