The results of this study suggest that reperfusion of ischemic myocardium may lead to the peroxisomal disorder both functionally and biochemically. An alkyl glycerol such as chimyl alcohol can protect the ischemic heart from the reperfusion injury probably by enhancing

Supplementation of cultured human pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAEC) with sn-1-O-hexadecylglycerol (HG) resulted in an approximately twofold increase in cellular levels of plasmalogens, a subclass of phospholipids known to have antioxidant properties; this was due, primarily, to a fourfold increase

To gain insight into the role of alkyl-linked lipids in biological systems, we added hexadecylglycerol (a precursor of complex ether-linked lipids) to medium required for the growth of L-M cells in culture. L-M fibroblasts cultured through several generations in the

A recent study demonstrated biochemical and structural alterations of peroxisomes in rat kidney after ischemia/reperfusion. We examined whether peroxisomes play any role in the pathophysiology of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Isolated perfused rat heart was made ischemic for 30 min by
A simple method is presented to esterify 1-O-hexadecyl-rac-glycerol using lipases in different organic solvents. The following fatty acids were used: C14:0, C16:0, C18:0, C18:1, and C18:2. Monoesterification was achieved by using a limiting amount of fatty acid. Both the 1-O-hexadecyl-3-O-acylglycerol
