Phosphorylethanolamine

Phosphorylethanolamine (Monoaminoethyl phosphate) is a membrane phospholipid and a key precursor of Phosphatidylcholine. Found in most animal tissues and various human extracranial tumors, it plays a critical role in membrane integrity, cell division, mitochondrial respiratory function, and more. Altered Phosphorylethanolamine levels are linked to Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Lowering its ratio to Phosphatidylcholine in the liver can improve insulin signaling. Phosphorylethanolamine shows promise for research in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic diseases.
