Inhibition of monoacylglycerol lipase reduces nicotine withdrawal [PDF]
Background and PurposeAbrupt discontinuation of nicotine, the main psychoactive component in tobacco, induces a withdrawal syndrome in nicotine‐dependent animals, consisting of somatic and affective signs, avoidance of which contributes to drug maintenance.

The binding of monoacylglycerides of long-chain fatty acids to human serum albumin has been examined using monooleoylglycerol as the ligand. Binding was investigated using changes in tryptophan fluorescence and also the displacement of a variety of well ...

Inhibition of Aspergillus niger DMF 0801 by monoacylglycerols prepared from coconut oil
The objectives of the present study were to test the antifungal properties (inhibition of radial growth, inhibition of the mould spore germination) of lauroylglycerol and mixtures of monoacylglycerols synthesised from coconut oil (MIX-I and MIX-II ...

The final step of triacylglycerol biosynthesis is catalyzed by acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) enzymes. The two known DGATs, DGAT1 and DGAT2, are encoded by unrelated genes.

Hydrolysis of rat chylomicron acylglycerols: a kinetic model
A quantitative model describing the kinetics of hydrolysis of rat chylomicron acylglycerols by bovine milk lipoprotein lipase has been developed using data from studies on rat lymph chylomicrons containing doubly labeled acylglycerols.

A novel pathway for lipid biosynthesis: the direct acylation of glycerol
The acylation of glycerol-3-phosphate by acyl-CoA is regarded as the first committed step for the synthesis of the lipoidal moiety in glycerolipids. The direct acylation of glycerol in mammalian tissues has not been demonstrated.

Unraveling Endocannabinoid Signaling Pathways in Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity. [PDF]
We performed a comprehensive molecular profiling of the endocannabinoid (eCB) system (ECS) in an auditory Hair cell (HC)‐like cell line (1). Afterwards, we developed suitable in vitro and in vivo models of cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity where we identified distinct components of the ECS (CB2R, DAGLβ and ABHD6) as molecular targets of the drug (2 ...

Monoacylglycerols as fruit juices preservatives [PDF]
Limiting or preventing the growth of undesirable microbial flora in food products is one of the main goals of food microbiology. A number of preservation methods have been designed to extend the shelf-life of the food products by reducing the microbial growth while new antimicrobials are still examined.

Cholesterol absorption from bile acid micelles is suppressed by phosphatidylcholine (PC) in the micelles. The effects of micellar phospholipid composition on absorption, metabolism, and secretion of lipids were examined in Caco-2 cells incubated with ...
