17:1 Lyso PC has been used as an LIPID MAPS internal standard for lipid extraction from serum and quantification in liquid chromatography mass-spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis. | [Biological Activity]
Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a bioactive molecule involved in various biological processes such as vascular reproductiondevelopment and myelination. It is associated to the progression of atherosclerosiswith findings of high concentration of LPC in the lesions/plaques. Higher levels of LPC are also found in oxidatively damaged low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) indicating cardiovascular disease. LPC is known to be implicated in neuronal diseases and cancer. |
