1-Hexadecyl lysophosphatidic acid

1-Hexadecyl lysophosphatidic acid is an ether analog of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) containing a hexadecyl group in the sn-1 position. LPA binds to five different G protein-coupled receptors and mediates a variety of biological responses, including cell proliferation, smooth muscle contraction, platelet aggregation, neurite contraction, and cell motility.
