1,2,3-Tripalmitoyl Glycerol

1,2,3-Tripalmitoyl glycerol is a triacylglycerol that contains palmitic acid (Cay-10006627) at the sn-1, sn-2, and sn-3 positions and has been found in palm oil. It inhibits glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and reduces viability of INS1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Myocardial levels of 1,2,3-tripalmitoyl glycerol are elevated by greater than 5-fold in a rat model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin (Cay-13104). 1,2,3-Tripalmitoyl glycerol has been used to form the lipid matrices of etoposide-incorporated nanoparticles. Formulations containing 1,2,3-tripalmitoyl glycerol have been used in cosmetic products as thickening and skin-conditioning agents.Formal Name: hexadecanoic acid, 1,1',1''-(1,2,3-propanetriyl) ester.
