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.

Clinical efficacy of thrombolytic drugs is limited by lack of specific delivery and requires large therapeutic doses which increase toxicity. Encapsulating these drugs in temperature-sensitive liposomes and applying hyperthermia to deliver thrombolytic agents locally to thrombus might theoretically favourably alter

Liposomes are well recognised for their ability to improve the delivery of a range of drugs. More commonly they are applied for the delivery of water-soluble drugs, but given their structural attributes, they can also be employed as solubilising agents

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
