Glycerophospholipids, cephalins (E6463-GRP)

Glycerophospholipids, cephalins are amphipathic molecules and essential components of neural membranes that are required for neural membrane structure and the proper function of integral membrane proteins, receptors, transporters, and ion channels. They also participate in apoptosis, regulate transporter and membrane-bound enzyme activities, and also serve as storage depots for lipid mediators and are useful in neurological disorder research, including Alzheimer's disease.
