Abstract

Ten choline glucerophospholipids (CGP) were isolated from the marine annelid, Marphysa sanguinea. Among them, six compounds were lyso platelet-activating factors (PAFs) and two were 1-hexadecyl-2-arachidonoyl-and 1-hexadecyl-2-eicosapentanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholines, which are regarded as stored precursor forms of PAF, so-called PAF-like lipid. These two compounds comprised 28% of the alkylacyl CGP fraction and are considered to be the main components of PAF-like lipid in this material.
