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

Activated platelets generate an eicosanoid proposed to be 8-hydroxy-9,10-dioxolane A3 (DXA3). Herein, we demonstrate that significant amounts of DXA3 are rapidly attached to phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) forming four esterified eicosanoids, 16:0p, 18:0p,

Physiology of cold-acclimation in non-diapausing adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus (Heteroptera)
Chill tolerance (time of survival at -5°C) increased in non-diapausing (reproducing) adults of Pyrrhocoris apterus after a gradual, 4-week-long decrease in ambient temperature from 25° to 0°C.

Ion Mobility–Mass Spectrometry Approach for the Comparison of Sheep and Goat Milk Lipidomes
In this work, we report an analytical procedure to investigate the lipid compositions of sheep and goat milk. This approach is based on an ion mobility–high-resolution mass spectrometric method to facilitate the identification of complex lipid species ...

Phosphatidylethanolamine positively regulates autophagy and longevity [PDF]
Autophagy is a cellular recycling program that retards ageing by efficiently eliminating damaged and potentially harmful organelles and intracellular protein aggregates. Here, we show that the abundance of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) positively regulates autophagy.
