1-O-hexadecyl-2-Eicosapentaenoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC
This compound is formed by the acylation of lyso-PAF C-16 with eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), as observed in neutrophils from fish oil-fed primates and humans. It serves as a key precursor for Platelet-Activating Factor (PAF) C-16 synthesis via the remodeling pathway, making it relevant for lipid metabolism and inflammation studies in vitro.
