Uses
TDPA can be used to cap copper nanoparticles to protect them from oxidation. It may also be used in the synthesis of cadmium sulfate (CdS) core, which can be used in the fabrication of cadmium selenium (CdSe)/CdS core quantum dots (QDs). It may also be coated on caesium lead bromide (CsPbBr
3) perovskite quantum dots for the development of white light emitting diodes (wLED).
Biological Activity
tetradecyl phosphonate is a pan-antagonist of lysophosphatidic acid 1 (lpa1), lpa2, and lpa3 receptors. the ic50 value for inhibition of lpa-induced calcium mobilization was 10 μm, 5.5 μm, and 3.1 μm, respectively. at a concentration of 10 μm, tetradecyl phosphonate activates a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ reporter construct 4-fold when compared with the controls and partially inhibits autotaxin with an ic50 value of approximately 3 μm [1].lysophosphatidic acid (lpa), also known as autotaxin (atx), is a lipid signalling molecule formed by the hydrolysis of lysophosphatidyl choline by lysophospholipase d [2]. lpa signals through four different g protein-coupled receptors, named as lpa1/edg-2, lpa2/edg-4, lpa3/edg-7, and lpa4/gpr23 [3]. it has been reported that lpa was involved in activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (pparγ) [4].
