Alkylglycerols are naturally occurring bioactive ether lipids found in great abundance in the livers of many marine species. In this study, we evaluated the differentiation-promoting potential of a methoxy substituted alkylglycerol--1-O (2 methoxy) hexadecyl glycerol (MHG)--to promote a more benign

Although numerous studies have shown potent antiproliferative and differentiation-inducing effects of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)2D3) and its analogs on cells not directly related to bone metabolism, only few reports focussed on the effects of these analogs on bone. We compared the

The ether lipid AMG (1-O-hexadecyl-2-O-methylglycerol) has previously been shown to have both enhancing and inhibitory effects on histamine release from isolated rat mast cells. In addition, a synergistic interaction with the phorbol ester TPA indicated protein kinase C activation. In

Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and the protein kinase C activator, 4-beta-phorbol dibutyrate (PDBu), both induced a pronounced and concentration-dependent stimulation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generation by purified guinea pig peritoneal eosinophils in the concentration range 1 nM-1 microM. The LTB4 response

Bradykinin (BK) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) both stimulate the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) in human fibroblasts, resulting in the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA) and diacylglycerol (DG) (Van Blitterswijk, W.J., Hilkmann, H., de Widt, J., and Van der Bend
