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.

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 in liposomes to study the impact of bilayer area and lipid geometry on the design of liposomes as liposomal solubilizing agents
  • to prepare a low temperature-sensitive liposome encapsulating thrombolytics to assess thrombolytic activity following hyperthermia

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) can form a hydrophobic surface in the mucus by acting as a surfactant to inhibit the 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

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

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
