Biochem/physiol Actions
1-Stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol is a diacyl glycerol (DAG) that allosterically activates PKC and other proteins that affect cell growth, development, survival, apoptosis, carcinogenesis and metastasis.3 It activates transient receptor potential channels 3 and 6 that regulates the intracellular free calcium levels.4

sn-1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG), a key intermediate in lipid metabolism, activates protein kinase C and is a fusogen. Phosphoinositides, the main sources of DAG in cell signaling, contain mostly stearoyl and arachidonoyl in the sn-1 and -2 positions, respectively. The polymorphic behavior

We have examined the metabolism of three radiolabeled 1,2-diacylglycerols (DGs) in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. Since the lipids used are not appreciably taken up by the cells, we used a phosphatidylserine (PS)-based liposome fusion system to rapidly associate the lipid species

1-Stearoyl-2-arachidonoylglycerol (SAG) kinase was identified in the particulate fraction of pig testes. This activity was enriched by hydroxyapatite and blue dye chromatography. The enzyme was selective for polyunsaturated diradylglycerol species and activity was not modulated by other diradylglycerol species or
We synthesized a diacylglycerol (DAG)-containing arachidonic acid, i.e., 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonyl-sn-glycerol (SAG), and studied its implication in the modulation of canonical transient receptor potential sub-type 6 (TRPC6) channels in stably-transfected HEK-293 cells. SAG induced the influx of Ca(2+), and also of other

We synthesized diacylglycerols (DAGs) containing omega-6 or omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids [i.e., 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol (SAG), 1-stearoyl-2-docosahexaenoyl-sn-glycerol (SDG), and 1-stearoyl-2-eicosapentaenoyl-sn-glycerol (SEG)] and assessed their efficiency on activation of conventional (alpha, beta I, gamma) and novel (epsilon, delta) protein kinase C (PKC). SAG
