1,2-Dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol ≥96%

1,2-Dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol is a cell-permeable activator of PKC (protein kinase C). Exhibits lower affinity for PKCa than for other isozymes. Shown to mimic the effects of tumor-promoting phorbol diesters on mitogenesis and epidermal growth factor binding and action in intact cells.
