Identification of biosynthetic precursors for the endocannabinoid anandamide in the rat brain

Journal of Lipid Research, 2008
Anandamide is an endogenous signaling lipid that binds to and activates cannabinoid receptors in the brain and peripheral tissues. The endogenous precursors of ananda­mide, N-arachidonoyl phosphatidylethanolamines (NArPEs), are a family of complex ...

Phosphatidylethanolamine Metabolism in Health and Disease [PDF]

, 2016
Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is the second most abundant glycerophospholipid in eukaryotic cells. The existence of four only partially redundant biochemical pathways that produce PE, highlights the importance of this essential phospholipid. The CDP-ethanolamine and phosphatidylserine decarboxylase pathways occur in different subcellular compartments ...

Use of the isolated perfused rat lung in studies on lung lipid metabolism

Journal of Lipid Research, 1973
A procedure for the use of the isolated perfused rat lung in studies on metabolic regulation has been developed. The procedure, reasonably uncomplicated, yet physiological, maintains the lung so that edema is not observed.

Differential effects of conjugated linoleic acid isomers on macrophage glycerophospholipid metabolism[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
Conjugated linoleic acids (CLA) are dietary fatty acids. Whereas cis-9,trans-11-(c9,t11)-CLA can be found in meat and dairy products, trans-9,trans-11-(t9,t11)-CLA is a constituent of vegetable oils.

Exchange of phospholipid classes between liver microsomes and plasma: comparison of rat, rabbit, and guinea pig

Journal of Lipid Research, 1971
Rat and guinea pig liver microsomes labeled with phospholipid 32P were incubated with rat, guinea pig, and rabbit plasma in a KC1–Tris–EDTA buffer. A net transfer of microsomal phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine to plasma was observed.

Phosphatidylethanolamine aggravates Angiotensin II-induced atrial fibrosis by triggering ferroptosis in mice

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
As atrial fibrosis is the main feature of atrial structural remodeling, inhibiting atrial fibrosis is crucial to the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) progression.

Sugar-based bactericides targeting phosphatidylethanolamine-enriched membranes [PDF]

, 2018
Anthrax is an infectious disease caused by Bacillus anthracis, a bioterrorism agent that develops resistance to clinically used antibiotics. Therefore, alternative mechanisms of action remain a challenge.
