Glycerophospho-N-Oleoyl Ethanolamine is the precursor of oleoyl ethanolamide (OEA). The fatty-acid ethanolamide, oleoylethanolamide (OEA) is a naturally occurring lipid. Oleoylethanolamide is an endogenous PPAR-α agonist. Oleoylethanolamide has been involved in modulating feeding and energy homeostasis by binding to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-α) [1]. PPAR-α is a transcription factor and a major regulator of lipid metabolism in the liver. Activation of PPAR-α is mainly involved in fatty acid oxidation and expressed in liver, kidney, and skeletal muscle. Through ligand binding, PPAR-α promotes uptake, utilization, and catabolism of fatty acids [2].
OEA reduced food intake and lowered body-weight gain. Subchronic OEA treatment (5 mg/kg, i.p., once daily for two weeks) in Zucker rats initiated transcription of PPAR-α and other PPAR-α target gene [1]. OEA is an endogenous, potent agonist for PPARα. OEA activated PPARα with an EC50 value of 120 nM in a transactivation assay [3]. In rodents, intraperitoneal administration of OEA induced satiety and peripheral utilization of lipid substrate. Acute oral administration induced satiety [4].
