A DGK-α inhibitor (IC50 = 0.6 µM for the porcine enzyme); selective for DGK-α over other type I DGKs, as well as type II, type III, type IV, and type V DGKs (IC50s = 7-36 µM); induces apoptosis in HeLa and HepG2 cells and enhances concanavalin A-induced increases in IL2 mRNA expression in Jurkat T cells at 5 µM
