General description
N-palmitoylglycine belongs to the family of acyl amides, which are endogenous lipids with a potential to modulate pain and inflammation. Structurally, N-palmitoylglycine (PalGly) comprises 16-carbon saturated fatty acid attached to glycine through amide linkage. It is a structural analog of phospholipid-derived N-acyl ethanolamine. N-palmitoylglycine, a saturated lipid is endogenously produced at high levels in rat skin and spinal cord.
Application
N-palmitoylglycine has been used as an intact polar lipid (IPL) standard for determination of δ 15N values of nitrogen containing headgroups of IPLs using gas chromatography/combustion/isotope-ratio mass spectrometry.
Biochem/physiol Actions
N-palmitoylglycine stimulates calcium influx and nitric oxide (NO) production through calcium-sensitive nitric-oxide synthase in sensory neurons. It acts as a lipid activator of G-protein-coupled receptor GPR132.

Compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) of nitrogen in amino acids has proven a valuable tool in many fields (e.g. ecology). Several intact polar lipids (IPLs) also contain nitrogen, and their nitrogen isotope ratios have the potential to elucidate food-web interactions or

N-arachidonoyl glycine is an endogenous arachidonoyl amide that activates the orphan G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) GPR18 in a pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive manner and produces antinociceptive and antiinflammatory effects. It is produced by direct conjugation of arachidonic acid to glycine and

Oleamide (cis-9-octadecenamide) is a member of an emerging class of lipid-signaling molecules, the primary fatty acid amides. A growing body of evidence indicates that oleamide mediates fundamental neurochemical processes including sleep, thermoregulation, and nociception. Nevertheless, the mechanism for oleamide biosynthesis

The G-protein-coupled receptor GPR132, also known as G2A, is activated by 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9-HODE) and other oxidized fatty acids. Other suggested GPR132 agonists including lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) have not been readily reproduced. Here, we identify N-acylamides in particular N-acylglycines, as lipid
