    Description

    Lithium 2-hydroxypropanoate is a lithium salt. Lithium 2-hydroxypropanoate has immunomodulatory activity (slightly enhancing PHA (HY-N7038)-induced lymphocyte proliferation). Lithium 2-hydroxypropanoate can be used in antioxidant activity assays. Lithium 2-hydroxypropanoate can be used in the research of mental diseases[1].

    In Vitro

    Lithium 2-hydroxypropanoate (0.6 μmol/mL (as Li+), 72 h) has no significant effect on the proliferation rate of lymphocytes without PHA stimulation, but slightly increases the proliferation rate of lymphocytes induced by PHA (HY-N7038) (92% compared with 87% in the control group)[1].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
