5-POHSA
5-POHSA is a CD36 and Src kinase modulator acting on taste bud cells, and belongs to the fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA) family. 5-POHSA binds to lingual CD36 to initiate intracellular signaling pathways, activate downstream Src kinase, and rapidly elevate intracellular calcium levels. 5-POHSA interacts with the tongue-brain axis by binding to CD36, so as to ameliorate taste disorders and obesity-related adverse reactions. 5-POHSA is applicable to the research of obesity.

Biological Activity
5-POHSA (5-100 μM; 5 min) activates Src kinase in cultured mouse taste bud cells in a concentration-dependent manner[1].
5-POHSA (20 μM) significantly increases calcium influx in mouse taste bud cells cultured in vitro via a CD36-dependent mechanism; in mock-transfected cells, its combined use with Linoleic acid (HY-N0729) produces a synergistic effect on calcium signals, while this response is attenuated in CD36 siRNA-transfected cells[1].
