Lipids

Lipids are small, organic molecules, that are usually hydrophobic or amphiphillic. For example, this group includes fats, fatty acids, waxes, triglycerides, sterols and phospholipids. Lipids are the main structural component of biological membranes of all cells. As such, bacterial lipid structures and glycolipids can serve as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and are recognized by the human immune system. Various lipids and lipid complexes of bacterial origin are therefore used as immunostimulants.

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (d18:1)

Item number: Cay62570-1

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is the product of phosphorylation of sphingosine by sphingosine kinase that is secreted from cells and acts as an agonist at S1P receptors. It increases intracellular calcium levels in TAg-Jurkat cells expressing S1P1 and Gqi5, which allows for phospholipase C stimulation by Gi...

Prostaglandin D2
Prostaglandin D2

Item number: Cay12010-1

Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is the major eicosanoid product of mast cells and is released in large quantities during allergic and asthmatic anaphylaxis. Mastocytosis patients produce excessive amounts of PGD2, which causes vasodilation, flushing, hypotension, and syncopal episodes. PGD2 is also produced in the brain via...

Arachidonic Acid

Item number: Cay90010-100

Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid and a precursor for all prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes. Virtually all cellular arachidonic acid is esterified in membrane phospholipids where its presence is tightly regulated through multiple interconnected pathways. Free arachidonic acid is a transient,...

Prostaglandin F2alpha

Item number: Cay16010-10

Prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) is a widely distributed PG occurring in many species. It causes contraction of vascular, bronchial, intestinal, and myometrial smooth muscle, and also exhibits potent luteolytic activity. PGF2alpha exerts its receptor mediated physiological activity at 50-100 nM. Maximal ovine...

Resolvin D1

Item number: Cay10012554-10

Resolvins are a family of potent lipid mediators derived from both eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, Cay-90110) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, Cay-90310). In addition to being anti-inflammatory, resolvins promote the resolution of the inflammatory response back to a non-inflamed state. Resolvin D1 (RvD1) is produced...
