General description

18:1 Phosphatidylethanol (PEth)/1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanol is a sodium salt of modified lipid, wherein C-1, C-2 of glycerol is substituted with 9Z-octadecenolyl and C-3 of glycerol is substituted by phosphoethanol group. This lipid metabolite of ethanol has two oleic acid chains.

Application

18:1 Phosphatidylethanol (PEth)/1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanol may be used:
  • as a standard in liquid chromatography−mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis of PEth in human whole blood
  • as a reference material in quantifying phosphatidylethanol in human blood by liquid chromatography high resolution mass spectrometry (LC−HRMS )
  • to incorporate into human high density lipoprotein (HDL) particles to study its effects on the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in cultured human smooth muscle cells

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) obtained from phosphatidylcholine in erythrocytes can acts as an important biomarker for alcohol consumption.

The process of diagnosing hazardous alcohol drinking (HAD) is based on self-reported data and is thereby vulnerable to bias. There has been an interest in developing epigenetic biomarkers for HAD that might complement clinical assessment. Because alcohol consumption has been

Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is a group of aberrant phospholipids formed in cell membranes in the presence of ethanol by the catalytic action of the enzyme phospholipase D on phosphatidylcholine. Recently published literature has demonstrated the existence of several molecular species of

Phosphatidylethanol (PEth) is a special phospholipid that is only formed in the presence of ethanol, and therefore, serves as a promising biomarker for alcohol intake. In this study, a simple, rapid and precise method based on LC-MS/MS combined with ultrasound-assisted
