1,2-Dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol is a potent inducer of protein kinase C. It does this by binding to the phospholipid membrane and activating proteins that are involved in signal transduction pathways. This compound is capable of activating protein kinase C, which has been shown to be an important event in the process of inflammation. 1,2-Dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol also binds to the il-2 receptor and potentiates its activity. The enzyme activities of polymyxin B are increased by 1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycerol. It has low potency against diacylglycerol kinase and is not highly effective at inducing other enzymes.
