2-Stearoyl-rac-glycerol is a monoacylglycerol containing stearic acid at the sn-2 position. 2-Stearoyl-rac-glycerol levels are increased in mouse plasma following exposure to low-dose ionizing radiation, as well as in rat kidney in a model of ischemia-reperfusion injury.
A biomarker of metabolic responses to hepatotoxicants and carcinogens.
