Monoacylglycerols Activate Capsaicin Receptor, TRPV1

Lipids, 2008
AbstractTransient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 1 (TRPV1) is known as capsaicin (CAP) receptor and activated by CAP. Activation of TRPV1 by CAP increases energy expenditure and thermogenesis in rodents or human. Therefore, TRPV1 may be target for energy expenditure enhancement and thermogenesis.

Monoacylglycerol lipase activity in cardiac myocytes

Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1988
Monoacylglycerol lipase activity in homogenates of isolated myocardial cells (myocytes) from rat hearts was recovered in both particulate and soluble subcellular fractions. The activity present in the microsomal (100 000 × g pellet) fraction was solubilized by treatment with Triton X-100 and combined with the 100 000 × g supernatant fraction; the ...

Monoacylglycerol hydrolase in human platelets

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1979
In the present paper we show for the first time monoacylglycerol hydrolase in human platelets. No monoacylglycerol hydrolase activity could be demonstrated in the other blood cells. The monoacylglycerol hydrolase of platelets could not be released from the cells by heparin, thus the enzyme is distinct from the postheparin plasma lipases.

Transacylase formation of bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 1999
Recent work within our laboratory has focused on the enzymes we hypothesize are involved in the biosynthesis of bis(monoacylglycerol)phosphate from phosphatidylglycerol. Here we describe a transacylase, active at acidic pH values, isolated from a macrophage-like cell line, RAW 264.7.

Monoacylglycerols as transmembrane Cl− anion transporters

Chemical Communications, 2012
We report that the amphiphilic natural product, monoacylglycerol 1, functions as a transmembrane Cl(-)/NO(3)(-) anion transporter. The 1,2-diol group is crucial for the transport function since diacylglycerol and triacylglycerol analogs are not anion transporters.
