    Product Description

    1-Docosahexaenoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PC is a lysophospholipid containing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; Item Nos. 90310 | 17950) at the sn-1 position that has been found in shark liver extract.1 1-Docosahexaenoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PC decreases LPS-induced increases in TNF-α and IL-6 levels in RAW 264.7 cells in a concentration-dependent manner.2 It decreases LPS-induced production of nitric oxide (NO) in RAW 264.7 cells when used at concentrations ranging from 12 to 200 µM. 1-Docosahexaenoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-PC (15-500 µg/kg) inhibits plasma leakage into the peritoneum in a mouse model of peritonitis induced by zymosan A (Item No. 21175).

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
