Abstract excerpt
Alkylglycerols are naturally occurring bioactive ether lipids found in great abundance in the livers of many marine species. In this study, we evaluated the differentiation-promoting potential of a methoxy substituted alkylglycerol--1-O (2 methoxy) hexadecyl glycerol (MHG)--to promote a more benign or differentiated phenotype in human colon cancer cells. Three cell lines with different biological and phenotypic...
