Description

M.W. 960.4 (based on tricosanoyl - 23:0)., A neutral glycosphingolipid (GSL) which is the common precursor of the ganglio-, globo-, globoiso-, lacto-, neolacto-, and muco- series of GSL. Promotes a time- and concentration-dependent proliferation of aortic smooth muscle cells via specific activation of p44 MAP kinase. Also stimulates Ras-GTP loading, MEK and Raf kinases, p44 MAP kinase and c-fos expression in human aortic smooth muscle cells.Molecular weight: 960.4 (based on tricosanyl -23:0), A neutral glycosphingolipid (GSL) that is the common precursor of the ganglio-, globo-, globoiso-, lacto-, neolacto-, and muco-series of GSL.
