General description

Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) are phospholipids, that are abundantly present in the tissues of animal. PCs consist of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in the sn-1 and sn-2 position respectively.

Application

14:0-16:0 PC (1-myristoyl-2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
  • in the bilayer membrane to study its miscibility with d-erythro-N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (16:0-SM) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
  • as a negative control in stimulation studies to study its effect on insect immune deficiency (IMD) pathway
  • in generating Wnt3a liposomes

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) participates in reducing the level of blood lipid and cholesterol.

Packaging

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

Wnt signals exercise strong cell-biological and regenerative effects of considerable therapeutic value. There are, however, no specific Wnt agonists and no method for in vivo delivery of purified Wnt proteins. Wnts contain lipid adducts that are required for activity and

The insect immune deficiency (IMD) pathway resembles the tumour necrosis factor receptor network in mammals and senses diaminopimelic-type peptidoglycans present in Gram-negative bacteria. Whether unidentified chemical moieties activate the IMD signalling cascade remains unknown. Here, we show that infection-derived lipids
