| hydronium ion | |
| Calcium | A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes. |
| Carbon Dioxide | A colorless, odorless gas that can be formed by the body and is necessary for the respiration cycle of plants and animals. |
| choline | A basic constituent of lecithin that is found in many plants and animal organs. It is important as a precursor of acetylcholine, as a methyl donor in various metabolic processes, and in lipid metabolism. |
| inositol | An isomer of glucose that has traditionally been considered to be a B vitamin although it has an uncertain status as a vitamin and a deficiency syndrome has not been identified in man. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1379) Inositol phospholipids are important in signal transduction. |
| Water | A clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed) |
| phthalic acid | RN given refers to parent cpd; structure in Merck Index, 9th ed, #7178 |
| 1-o-hexadecyl-2-lyso-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine | biologically inactive precursor of platelet activating factor |
| palmidrol | a cannabinoid receptor-inactive eCB-related molecule used as prophylactic in helping to prevent respiratory viral infection |
| anandamide | |
| n-oleoylethanolamine | ceramidase inhibitor |
| n-palmitoylsphingosine | structure given in first source; RN given refers to (R*,S*-(E))-isomer |
| Quinolinate | |
| fructose-1,6-diphosphate | RN refers to (D)-isomer |
| Cytidine Monophosphate | Cytidine (dihydrogen phosphate). A cytosine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2', 3' or 5' position. |
| Coenzyme A | |
| Palmitoyl Coenzyme A | A fatty acid coenzyme derivative which plays a key role in fatty acid oxidation and biosynthesis. |
| stearoyl-coenzyme A | |
| lyso-pc | |
| 1-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate | |
| nicotinate mononucleotide | |
| Sphingosine | An amino alcohol with a long unsaturated hydrocarbon chain. Sphingosine and its derivative sphinganine are the major bases of the sphingolipids in mammals. (Dorland, 28th ed) |
| sodium molybdate(vi) | RN given refers to molybdic acid, di-Na salt |
| glycerylphosphorylcholine | A component of PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINES or LECITHINS, in which the two hydroxy groups of GLYCEROL are esterified with fatty acids. (From Stedman, 26th ed) |
