General description

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an acidic phospholipid enriched in human cerebral cortex. It is abundant in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane in neural tissues. NBD PS is a fluorescently labeled phospholipid with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD) at the headgroup of PS.

Application

18:1-06:0 NBD PS or 1-oleoyl-2-{6-[(7-nitro-2-1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)amino]hexanoyl}-sn-glycero-3-phosphoserine (ammonium salt) may be used as a marker to determine the aminophospholipid transferase activity and in large unilammelar vesicles (LUVs) to investigate the role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is involved in the regulation of many enzymes and structural components. It supports neuronal survival, neurite growth and synaptogenesis. It is associated with cognitive disability in Alzheimer′s disease.

Fluorinated anesthetics can profoundly alter plasma membrane structure and function, potentially impacting cell injury responses. Because major surgery often precipitates acute renal failure, this study assessed whether the most commonly used fluorinated anesthetic, isoflurane, alters tubular cell responses to toxic
