General description

C16-02:0 PC, also known as 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (C16 PAF) (acetyl PAF), is a platelet-activating factor (PAF). Acetyl PAF is present in the body and it contains ether-linked hexadecyl chain at the sn-1 position and an acetyl group at the sn-2 position.

Application

C16-02:0 PC or 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, a platelet-activating factor (PAF) is used as a substrate for the determination of platelet-activating factor-acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) activity in plasma or serum.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a pro-inflammatory agent that exhibits variety of biological and pharmacological effects. It plays a major role in initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. PAF acts as a potential biomarker for coronary artery diseases. It yields LysoPAF (1-O-alkyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) on hydrolysis by platelet-activating factor-acetylhydrolase.
