Mechanisms of inhibition of cell proliferation by 1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in epithelial cancer cell lines

1-O-Octadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (ET18-OCH$\sb3),$ a prototype of synthetic antitumor ether lipids (AEL), selectively inhibits the growth of a variety of cancer cells relative to normal cells. The mechanism of its antiproliferative action remains obscure. We have explored a numbe...
