General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is the main constituent of the plasma membrane. Generally, PC has unsaturated fatty acid, in both from human and vegetable origin. Fatty acid composition of soy PC has 70 % of linolenic acid. Hence, Soy PC has low phase transition temperature in water containing systems.

Application

Soy PC has been used in the preparation of liposomes. Soy PC is suitable for use in the preparation of flexible liposomes (FLUV) and in treating Pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells to analyze its effects on exocytosis kinetics.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine is the main source of phosphocholine, which aids in transforming ceramides into sphingomyelin. Phosphatidylcholine is more prominent in the living tissues. Soy PC is commonly used in cosmetic formulations.

It has been reported that the oxidation of phosphatidylcholine (PC) is necessary for C-reactive protein (CRP) to bind to lipid membranes, but it remains elusive why CRP only binds oxidized membranes. Here we offer a new perspective on the role
