Barbiturate Interaction with Phosphatidylcholine [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1972
A hydrogen-bonding interaction between phenobarbital or pentobarbital with phosphatidylcholine in chloroform is indicated by the effects of added phosphatidylcholine on the infrared and proton magnetic resonance spectra of these barbiturates. The nitrogenbound proton of the barbiturate and the orthophosphate moiety of the phosphatidylcholine molecule ...

Phosphatidylcholine synthesis in yeast.

open access: hybridJournal of Lipid Research, 1988
The two pathways for the biosynthesis of phosphatidylcholine, by way of phosphocholine and by methylation of phosphatidylethanolamine, in wild-type yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and in the yeast mutant GL7 have been compared. The mutant requires for growth a sterol, unsaturated fatty acids, and methionine.

Miscibility of Sphingomyelins and Phosphatidylcholines in Unsaturated Phosphatidylcholine Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Polyunsaturated phospholipids are common in biological membranes and affect the lateral structure of bilayers. We have examined how saturated sphingomyelin (SM; palmitoyl and stearoyl SM (PSM and SSM, respectively)) and phosphatidylcholine (PC; dipalmitoyl PC and 1-palmitoyl-2-stearoyl PC (DPPC and PSPC, respectively)) segregate laterally to form ...

Enhanced Stability of Indocyanine Green by Encapsulation in Zein-Phosphatidylcholine Hybrid Nanoparticles for Use in the Phototherapy of Cancer

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Indocyanine green (ICG) is a clinically approved near-infrared dye that has shown promise as a photosensitizer for the phototherapy of cancer. However, its chemical instability in an aqueous solution has limited its clinical application.

Digestion and Absorption of Milk Phospholipids in Newborns and Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2021
Milk polar lipids provide choline, ethanolamine, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are needed for the growth and plasticity of the tissues in a suckling child.

Mucosal Protection by Phosphatidylcholine [PDF]

open access: yesDigestive Diseases, 2012
The colonic mucus serves a first barrier towards invasion of commensal bacteria in stools to prevent inflammation. One essential component of intestinal mucus is phosphatidylcholine (PC) which represents more than 90% of the phospholipids in mucus indicative for a selective transport of PC into this compartment. It is arranged in lamellar structures as

Fatty Acid Production and Direct Acyl Transfer through Polar Lipids Control TAG Biosynthesis during Nitrogen Deprivation in the Halotolerant Alga Dunaliella tertiolecta

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2021
The aims of this work were to evaluate the contribution of the free fatty acid (FA) pool to triacylglyceride (TAG) biosynthesis and to try to characterize the mechanism by which FA are assimilated into TAG in the green alga Dunaliella tertiolecta. A time-

Frying Performance of Gallic Acid and/or Methyl Gallate Accompanied by Phosphatidylcholine

open access: yesFoods, 2023
This study shows the possibility of using gallic acid (GA) and/or methyl gallate (MG) accompanied by phosphatidylcholine (PC) instead of tert-butylhydoquinone (TBHQ) for frying purposes.

Lipid and Amino Acid Pathway Metabolites Contribute to Cold Tolerance in Quercus wutaishanica

open access: yesMetabolites, 2023
Cold is an important environmental stress affecting the growth, productivity, and geographic distribution of tree species. Oaks are important for environmental conservation and wood supplies. Oak metabolites respond to low temperatures (LTs).

Novel African trypanocidal agents: membrane rigidifying peptides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The bloodstream developmental forms of pathogenic African trypanosomes are uniquely susceptible to killing by small hydrophobic peptides. Trypanocidal activity is conferred by peptide hydrophobicity and charge distribution and results from increased ...
