LIPIDS Flashcards
Ceramide derivatives
all sphingolipids: sphingomyelin, glycosphnigolipids, cerebrosides, gangliosides
derivative of arachdionic acid
prostanoids, leukotriens, lipoxins, prostaglandins, prostacyclins, thromboxane
what can cause bronchoconstriction
leukotirens
Simple lipid
Esters of FA and glycerol
Saturated
no double bonds
Un-saturated
double bonds
Eicosanoids derivatives
Leukotriens, prostaglandins, Thromboxane, lipoxid
Cause bronchoconstruction
leukotriens
Tm of FA
Incereases with more saturation and length of chain
Glycerophospholipids
Lechitin: phosphatidyl choline
Cehpalin: phosphatidyl ethanolamine
Cardiolipin: phosphatidyl glycerol
Lysophosphatidylcholine:
Plasmalogen
Like cephalin but and ether at sn 1 instead of ester
ergosterol
Forms Vitamin D
ceramide
FA + shingosine
W-3
Alpha-linoleic, eicosapentaenoic, doshexaenoic
Lechitin
dipalmitoyl lecithin, respiratory distress
