Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, sphingomyelin, and ethanolamine plasmalogen represent the six most abundant phospholipids of brain cell membrane. The ratio of the phospholipid contents (phospholipid profile) of the brain is remarkably consiste

The magnetic field-dependent phosphodiester (PDE) signal found in "P NMR spectra of liver and brain has been studied using saturation transfer and proton decoupling techniques. This PDE component, which accounts for as much as 45% of the signal in vivo, has been identified as primarily phospholipid
The in vivo dog brain "P NMR spectrum has a large peak in the phosphodiester region accounting for more than 35% of the total observable phosphorus metabolites. It is possible to reduce the intensity of this peak by off-resonance saturation. To characterize the nature of this peak, extracts of dog b
## Abstract Evidence has been accumulating that schizophrenia involves abnormalities in the composition and metabolism of cell membrane phospholipids (PLs) in the brain. In vivo ^31^P MRS has been used to measure the metabolic precursors and degradation products of PL metabolism in schizophrenia. B
