Lysophosphatidylcholine–arbutin complexes form bilayer-like structures

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2008
Arbutin is known to suppress melanin production in murine B16 melanoma cells and inhibit phospholipase action. This encourages the possibility to stabilize it in lipid aggregates for its administration in medical applications. Thus, it was of interest to demonstrate that monomyristoylphosphatidylcholine (14:0 lysoPC) and arbutin may form association ...
