Phospholipid - Wikipedia
Phospholipids[1] are a class of lipids whose molecule has a hydrophilic "head" containing a phosphate group and two hydrophobic "tails" derived from fatty acids, joined by an alcohol residue (usually a glycerol molecule). Marine phospholipids typically have omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA integrated as part of the phospholipid molecule. [2] .
Lecithin and Phosphatides | Uses and Benefits | NOW Foods
Lecithin is the name given to a group of fatty substances comprised of the most common natural phospholipids found in many animal tissues and organs, as well as many plants, where they’re found abundantly in legumes, cereals and seed embryos. Phospholipids are important constituents of biological membranes.
Phosphatidic acid - Wikipedia
Phosphatidic acids are anionic phospholipids important to cell signaling and direct activation of lipid-gated ion channels. Hydrolysis of phosphatidic acid gives rise to one molecule each of glycerol and phosphoric acid and two molecules of fatty acids. They constitute about 0.25% of phospholipids in the bilayer. [1]
Health effects of dietary phospholipids - PMC
Beneficial effects of dietary phospholipids (PLs) have been mentioned since the early 1900's in relation to different illnesses and symptoms, e.g. coronary heart disease, inflammation or cancer.

2024年12月2日 · phospholipid, any member of a large class of fatlike, phosphorus-containing substances that play important structural and metabolic roles in living cells.
2.8: Structure and Function - Lipids and Membranes
2024年3月21日 · Since all glycerolipids can have a variety of fatty acids at positions 1 and 2 on the glycerol, they all are families of compounds. The phosphatidylethanolamines are found in all living cells and are one of the most common phosphatides, making up about 25% of them.
27.3: Phospholipids - Chemistry LibreTexts
Glycerophospholipids are important components of the lipid bilayer of cellular membranes. Glycerophospholipids are structurally related to fats, as both are derived from phosphatidic acid, which has the basic structure of glycerol with two ester bonds with fatty acids and one ester bond with phosphoric acid.
