homeostasis/metabolism
• mice show a modest accumulation of plasmanyl and plasmenyl lipid species in brain (cerebrum and cerebellum), liver, and subcutaneous and visceral white adipose tissue (sWAT and vWAT, respectively)
• liver shows the most pronounced but still mild changes, with a moderate elevation of both plasmanyl and plasmenyl lipid species in all ether lipid subclasses except for plasmanyl phosphatidylcholine (PC[O]), plasmanyl phosphatidylethanolamine (PE[O]) and plasmenyl phosphatidylethanolamine (PE[P]); in contrast, only certain ether lipid subclasses are affected in the other tissues
• sWAT and vWAT shows an accumulation of neutral ether lipids, i.e. plasmanyl/plasmenyl triacylglycerol (TG[O + P])
• both brain regions (cerebrum and cerebellum) show significantly higher levels of plasmanyl lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC[O]), plasmenyl lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC[P]) and PC[O], whereas plasmanyl/plasmenyl phosphatidylethanolamine (PE[O/P]) is unaffected
• moderate accumulation of AGMO substrates plasmanyl monoacylglycer (MG[O]) and LPC[O] as well as LPC[P] is seen in cerebrum
• sWAT only shows enhanced levels of AGMO substrates plasmanyl lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE[O]), LPC[O], and MG[O]
