General description

Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) is a bioactive lipid.

Application

16:0 Lyso PI (1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphoinositol) has been used as a lipid standard in the optimization of the liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method conditions and also has been used as lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) substrates in lysophosphatidylinositol acyltransferase biochemical assay to assay lyso-phosphatidylinositol acyltransferase (LPIAT) activity of liver microsomes. It may also be used as synthetic LPI to compare its effect with LPI from liver in transferrin (Tf)mediated endocytosis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Increased circulating levels of L-alpha-lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) are associated with cancer and LPI is a potent ligand for the G-protein-coupled receptor GPR55.
Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) has the ability to modulate cancer cell migration. It can control the functions of endothelium. LPI can serve as an autocrine regulator of cell growth, hence its known to participate in cancer progression. It can stimulate signaling cascades, that are essential for survival, migration and proliferation of cells.

Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) is a well-known bioactive lipid that is able to activate signalling cascades relevant to cell proliferation, migration, survival and tumorigenesis. Our previous work suggested that LPI is involved in cancer progression since it can be released in the

Lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) is a bioactive lipid generated by phospholipase A2 which is believed to play an important role in several diseases. Indeed LPI can affect various functions such as cell growth, differentiation and motility, in a number of cell-types, including

In this study, we have investigated how clathrin-dependent endocytosis is affected by exogenously added lysophospholipids (LPLs). Addition of LPLs with large head groups strongly inhibits transferrin (Tf) endocytosis in various cell lines, while LPLs with small head groups do not.

Shiga toxin (Stx), an AB5 toxin, binds specifically to the neutral glycosphingolipid Gb3 at the cell surface before being transported into cells. We here demonstrate that addition of conical lysophospholipids (LPLs) with large head groups inhibit Stx binding to cells
