English abstract:
Diacylglycerollipase alpha/beta (DAGLα/β) are two sequence-related serine hydrolases, biosynthesizing 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). 2-AG, one of the main endocannabinoids, and its esterified fatty acid arachidonic acid serve as substrates for pro-inflammatory cellular pathways. Chronic inflammation is one hallmark of placentas affected by preeclampsia (PE) which is often linked to an altered lipid metabolism. In this study, we aim to identify the specific function and regulation of DAGLα/β in healthy (CTRL) and PE placentas.
