Product Description
C16-PAF (PAF (C16)) is a phospholipid mediator, platelet activating factor, and ligand of the PAF G protein-coupled receptor (PAFR). C16-PAF displays anti-apoptotic effects and inhibits caspase-dependent death by activating PAFR. C16-PAF is a potent MAPK and MEK/ERK activator. C16-PAF induces increased vascular permeability.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Human Endogenous Metabolite ERK MEK
ln Vitro
C16-PAF (PAF (C16); 0.5-1.5 μM; for 24 hours) triggers considerable concentration-dependent neuronal death in PAFR?/? but not PAFR+/+ cultures. C16-PAF (1 μM) triggers neuronal death in PAFR? /? cells infected with EGFP alone[1]. ?C16-PAF (1 μM; for 24 hours) activates caspase 7 but not caspase 3 in PAFR?/? neurons[1]. ?C16-PAF is generated by two separate processes ; the remodeling pathway and the de novo synthesis pathway. C16-PAF functions by interacting to a unique G-protein-coupled seven transmembrane receptor[2][3]. ?C16-PAF (1-25 μg/ml; 6, 12 , 24 h) inhibits M. smegmatis and M. bovis BCG growth in a time-dependent manner[3].

Additional Infomation
2-O-acetyl-1-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine is a 2-acetyl-1-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine betaine which has hexadecyl as the alkyl group. PAF is a potent phospholipid activator and mediator of many leukocyte functions, including platelet aggregation, inflammation, and anaphylaxis. It has a role as a beta-adrenergic antagonist, an antihypertensive agent, a bronchoconstrictor agent, a hematologic agent and a vasodilator agent.
Platelet Activating Factor is a phosphatidylcholine derivative that modulates inflammation, vascular permeability, allergic responses and the functions of leukocytes and platelets.
A phospholipid derivative formed by PLATELETS; BASOPHILS; NEUTROPHILS; MONOCYTES; and MACROPHAGES. It is a potent platelet aggregating agent and inducer of systemic anaphylactic symptoms, including HYPOTENSION; THROMBOCYTOPENIA; NEUTROPENIA; and BRONCHOCONSTRICTION.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: 50 mg/mL (95.48 mM)
H2O: 33.33 mg/mL (63.65 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 mM) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), suspension solution; with sonication.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.77 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 1.9096 mL 9.5478 mL 19.0956 mL
5 mM 0.3819 mL 1.9096 mL 3.8191 mL
10 mM 0.1910 mL 0.9548 mL 1.9096 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
g/mol

Molecular Weight Calculator allows you to calculate the molar mass and elemental composition of a compound, as detailed below:

Note: Chemical formula is case sensitive: C12H18N3O4  c12h18n3o4
Instructions to calculate molar mass (molecular weight) of a chemical compound:
  • To calculate molar mass of a chemical compound, please enter the chemical/molecular formula and click the “Calculate’ button.
Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
