(2S)-Oleyl LPA - 1 mg

(2S)-Oleyl LPA is an analog of 18:1 LPA in which the fatty ester bond to gycerol has been replaced by a metabolically stable ether linkage. Lysophosphatidic Acid (LPA) is a small lysophospholipid involved in diverse cellular processes such as cell proliferation chemotaxis platelet aggregation wound healing angiogenesis tumor invasion and smooth muscle contraction. LPA binds to several G-coupled protein receptors to initiate its biological functions. In cancer LPA primarily promotes cell survival migration and invasion.
