    Product Description

    1,2-Dihexanoyl-sn-glycerol is an analog of the protein kinase C (PKC)-activating second messenger diacylglycerol (DAG). Although the biological activities of 1,2-Dihexanoyl-sn-glycerol have not been well characterized, it is expected to behave similarly to 1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol (Item No. 62225).1,2
