Fatty Amides

D-Pantothenic acid sodium (Sodium pantothenate) is an essential trace nutrient that functions as the obligate precursor of coenzyme A (CoA). D-Pantothenic acid sodium plays key roles in myriad biological processes, including many that regulate carbohydrate, lipid, protein, and nucleic acid metabolism.

N-Hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone is a short-chained N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL). N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone is also a mediator of bacterial quorum-sensing regulation. N-hexanoyl-L-homoserine lactone promotes lipid accumulation in algae. AHL is an intercellular communication signal molecule in the quorum sensing system of Gram-negative bacteria and a medium for mediating information exchange between eukaryotic plants and prokaryotic bacteria. AHL can affect bacteria activities, such as biofilm formation, pigment synthesis, and antibiotic synthesis.

Synaptamide (Dehydroepiandrosteron; DHEA) is an endogenous metabolite and structural analogue of Anandamide. Synaptamide binds to both the cannabinoid-1 and 2 (CB1 and CB2) cannabinoid receptors and has anti-inflammatory properties. Synaptamide is the first small-molecule endogenous ligand of an adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (aGPCR) .

D-Panthenol is the biologically-active alcohol of pantothenic acid, which leads to an elevation in the amount of coenzyme A in the cell. D-panthenol exhibits nephroprotective effect in AKI, promotes tissue repair and regeneration.

N-Oleoyldopamine (OLDA) is an orally active TRPV1 activator and 5-LOX inhibitor with blood-brain barrier permeability. N-Oleoyldopamine excites histaminergic neurons in the tuberomammillary nucleus via a dopamine receptor mechanism, a process independent of TRPV1 and cannabinoid receptors. On one hand, N-Oleoyldopamine promotes the release of insulin and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide through a GPR119-dependent pathway to improve glucose tolerance; on the other hand, N-Oleoyldopamine improves left ventricular function and reduces myocardial infarction size by triggering the release of substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide. N-Oleoyldopamine is used in studies related to glycemic abnormalities and myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Palmitoylglycine (N-palmitoyl glycine), an endogenous lipid that acts as a modulator of calcium influx and nitric oxide () production in sensory neurons. Palmitoylglycine is linked to an increased risk of Background Brugada syndrome (BrS) and interacts with BrS-associated proteins, demonstrating moderate binding affinities for DCC, CR1, CTSB, NAAA, DEFB1, EPHA1, IGF1/IGFBP3/ALS, and LTA.

Stearoylethanolamide is an endocannabinoid-like compound with pro-apoptotic activity.

N-Oleoyl glycine is a lipoamino acid, which stimulates adipogenesis associated with activation of CB1 receptor and Akt signaling pathway in 3T3-L1 adipocyte.

Erucamide is an orally active, blood-brain barrier-permeable TMEM19 ligand and T3SS inhibitor. Erucamide exerts retinal neuroprotective effects in mouse models of retinal degeneration. Erucamide attenuates depression- and anxiety-like behaviors in mice.\n\nErucamide binds to the conserved hydrophobic pocket in HrcC, disrupts its outer membrane localization, and blocks T3SS-mediated effector protein secretion in Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria. Erucamide enhances the antimicrobial immunity of plants against pathogenic bacteria. Erucamide can be used in research related to retinitis pigmentosa, anxiety and depression, bacterial wilt, and bacterial blight.

Linoleoyl ethanolamide (Linoleic acid monoethanolamide) is classified as a fatty acid ethanolamide. Linoleoyl ethanolamide only weakly binds G-protein-coupled cannabinoid receptors of type-1（CB1）and CB2 receptors, and inhibits the binding of ^[3H]CP-55,940 with K_is of 10 and 25 μM, respectively. Linoleoyl ethanolamide is 4-fold less potent than anandamide at causing catalepsy in mice and it does not prolong sleep time.

N-dodecanoyl-L-Homoserine lactone (C12-HSL) is a quorum sensing (QS) signaling molecule. N-dodecanoyl-L-Homoserine lactone (C12-HSL) aptamers blocks qurom sensing and inhibits biofilm formation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Stearamide is a primary fatty acid amide. Stearamide displays cytotoxic and ichthytoxic activity.

γ-Sanshool can be isolated from Zanthoxylum piperitum. γ-Sanshool inhibits human ACAT-1 and ACAT-2 activities with IC₅₀s of 12.0 and 82.6 μM.

N-Palmitoyl-L-glutamine is a Glutamine derivative.

N-Octanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C8-HSL) is an autoinducer. It mainly serves as a key inter- and intra-species communication medium or "signal molecule" in Gram-negative bacteria. N-Octanoyl-L-homoserine lactone microparticles exhibit adjuvant potential when used in combination with various particulate vaccines.

Nonivamide is a agonist, which exhibits 4d-EC₅₀ value of 5.1 mg/L in static toxicity tests.

N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone (3-OH-C4-HSL) is an acyl-homoserine lactone, that can be isolated from Vibrionaceae. N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone is a signaling molecule that is involved in bacterial quorum sensing (QS). N-3-Hydroxybutyryl-L-homoserine lactone senses the density of bacterial population, regulates the cellular process, such as bioluminescence, biofilm formation, and exo-enzyme production.

Hydroxy-β-sanshool is an alkylamide exists in Zanthoxylum bungeanum oil and Zanthoxylum schinifolium oil.

N-Oleoyl-L-Serine is an endogenous amide of long-chain fatty acids with ethanolamine (N-acyl amides). N-Oleoyl-L-Serine is a lipid regulator of bone remodeling and stimulates osteoclast apoptosis. N-Oleoyl-L-Serine can be used for antiosteoporotic drug discovery development.

Linoleamide is a linoleic acid amide. Linoleamide regulates Ca (II) ux and inhibits the erg current.
