General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is one of the most important constituent of colon′s mucosal layer. 14:0-18:0 PC (1-myristoyl-2-stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is an asymmetrical lipid with long alkyl side chain.

Application

14:0-18:0 PC (1-myristoyl-2-stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
  • in lipid bilayers to study its miscibility with d-erythro-N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (16:0-SM) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
  • as an asymmetrical lipid component in liposomes to study the impact of bilayer area and lipid geometry and as liposomal solubilizing agents
  • to prepare a low temperature-sensitive liposome for thrombolytic studies

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) forms a hydrophobic surface in the mucus by acting as a surfactant resulting in the inhibition of penetrance of bacteria.

In this study we have used differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to study the miscibility of different saturated phosphatidylcholines (PCs) with D-erythro-N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (16:0-SM). Information about the miscibility was obtained by observing the thermotropic phase behavior of binary mixtures of saturated PCs

Phosphatidylcholines are the major phospholipid component of most eukaryotic cell membranes. Phosphatidylcholines have been shown to actively participate in regulatory and metabolic processes. Dysfunctional metabolic processes have been linked to human disease and can result in altered phosphatidylcholine structural features
