Lipids A wide variety of naturally occurring organic compounds classified together on the basis of common solubility properties: insolubility in water insoluble in water Lipids include Waxes: Esters of long chain fatty acids and alcohols Triglycerides: Fatty acid esters of glycerol Phospholipids: Fatty acid and phosphate esters of glycerol Prostaglandins: structures based on Eicosanoids Glycolipids: structures based on Spingosine cholesterol, steroid hormones, and bile acids fat-soluble vitamins
Lipid classification by function Energy-storage lipids – A fat, triacylglycerols or triglycerides. Membrane lipids - phospholipids, sphingoglycolipids, and cholesterol Emulsification lipids - bile acids, soaps and detergents Chemical messenger lipids - steroid hormones, eicosanoids, and prostaglandins Protective-coating lipids - biological waxes Fat-soluble vitamins –E.g. Vitamin A
Polyunsaturated fatty acids: omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids
Essential Fatty Acids (EFA). Fatty acids that cannot be produced by the body and are necessary for proper metabolism. The OMEGA 6 and OMEGA 3 fatty acids are referred to as Essential Fatty Acids (EFA).

4) Write an equation for each of the following reactions: c) Reaction of decanoic acid with KOH d) Hydrogenation of linoleic acid
5) What are the structural differences between triglycerides (triacylglycerols) and phospholipids? Where they are found in living organisms?
Steroids Contains a characteristic arrangement of four cycloalkane rings that are joined to each other. Examples of steroids include the dietary fat cholesterol:
8) What are the two major types of fat substitutes and how they work
How aspirin relieves pain and inflammation? Aspirin inhibits the production of prostaglandins Concept of COX enzyme inhibition
Triglycerides and lipoproteins: high-density (HDL)or (LDL) lipoproteins Lipoprotein particles: chylomicrons Triglycerides transportation in the blood stream
Four major groups of plasma lipoproteins. 1. Chylomicrons 2. Very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) 3. Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) 4. High-density lipoproteins (HDL)
Triglycerides and lipoproteins: high-density (HDL)or (LDL) lipoproteins Lipoprotein particles: chylomicrons Triglycerides transportation in the blood stream chylomicron remnant
The roles of HDL, LDL, and cholesterol. Cholesterol and lipoproteins are related plaque that causes heart attacks and most strokes. When LDL levels are low, atherosclerosis and heart attacks are almost unknown. High HDL levels are associated with a reduced risk of heart disease: "good" cholesterol
