Maximum D9-choline and D9-betaine concentrations were reached latest after D9-POPC administration versus other components. D9-POPC and D9-phosphorylcholine resulted in lower D9-trimethylamine (D9-TMAO) formation. The AUCs (0-7d) of plasma D9-PC concentration showed highest values after administration of D9-POPC. D9-POPC appeared in plasma after fatty acid remodelling, predominantly as D9-1-palmitoyl-2-linoleyl-PC (D9-PLPC), confirming cleavage to 1-palmitoyl-lyso-D9-PC and re-acylation with linoleic acid as the most prominent alimentary unsaturated fatty acid.
