Linolein hydroperoxides are a mixture of 132 possible isomers of mono-, di-, and tri-hydroperoxides produced from the autoxidation of trilinolein. Autoxidation of linoleic acid containing triglycerides (for example, trilinolein) in vivo could result in the formation of these hydroperoxides. Unlike…

13(S)-HODE is the LO metabolite of linoleic acid. 13(S)-HODE modulates the PAF, LTB4, and fMLP-induced calcium influx in human PMNL. The mechanism by which 13(S)-HODE elicits its inhibitory effect is still unclear. The use of biotinylated 15(S)-HETE as a probe for detecting binding proteins and/or…

Thioetheramide-PC is a structurally modified phospholipid that functions as a competitive, reversible inhibitor of sPLA2. The IC₅₀ value for thioetheramide-PC is 2 µM at a substrate concentration of 0.5 mM. In addition to binding to the catalytic site of sPLA2, thioetheramide-PC…

DAN-1 EE is a fluorescent indicator for the bioimaging of NO. DAN-1 EE is a cell permeable derivative of DAN, a molecule which has been used extensively in the quantitation of nitrate and nitrite using fluorescence spectroscopy. Upon entry into the cell, DAN-1 EE is transformed into the less cell…

An endocannabinoid analog that does not bind to CB1, CB2, or TRPV1; at 5 mg/kg antagonizes the hypotensive effects of a 10 mg/kg IV bolus of abnormal cannabidiol (Abn-CBD) in an anesthetized rat blood pressure model; relaxes isolated rat mesenteric arteries and abdominal aorta, and increases the…

A potent and selective agonist of the human PGE2 receptor, EP4 with a Ki value of 0.38 nM and an EC50 value of 0.6 nM; induces thermal hyperalgesia when injected into guinea pig forepaw and increases vasodilation of human pulmonary vein.

PPHP is a substrate for the measurement of peroxidase enzymes. PPHP has been used to quantitate the peroxidase activity of COX-1 and COX-2.

A monohydroperoxy PUFA produced by the action of 15-LO on γ-linolenic acid.

A natural isothiocyanate which induces the expression of phase II detoxification enzymes and activates Nrf2, promoting the expression of antioxidant and phase II genes; acts as a quorum sensing inhibitor, blocking acyl-homoserine lactone signaling in P. aeruginosa without affecting growth…

A natural monoacylglycerol that is metabolized by monoacylglycerol lipase; an agonist of GPR119 (EC₅₀ = 2.5 µM), stimulating the release of glucagon-like peptide-1 from intestinal L-cells.

The four tocopherols (α, β, .delta., and γ) and four tocotrienols (α, β, .delta., and γ) are forms of vitamin E, which is known for its antioxidant activity. Tocotrienols are found at high concentrations in palm oil and rice bran. Recent studies show tocotrienols…

(+)-15(R)-Fluprostenol isopropyl ester is a prodrug (Travoprost) which is converted by esterase enzymatic activity in the cornea to yield the corresponding free acid. The free acid, (+)-15(R)-fluprostenol, is a potent FP receptor agonist. The 15(R)-epimers of most PGs are about 100 times less…

A water soluble prodrug analog of AEA with similar activity to that of AEA in the growth inhibition of C6 glioma cells; also a structural variant of LPA, however, its effects on the various LPA receptors have not been tested.
