Liposome formation from synthetic polyhydroxyl lipids

Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1991
The preparation of liposomes from synthetic dialkyl amphiphiles is described. Two of these lipids were synthesised with mixed chains of 18:0,14:0 and 18:0,22:0 and one contained two identical alkyl chains of 18:0,18:0.

Structural and functional stability of the sulfur-free surfactant protein B peptide mimic B-YL in synthetic surfactant lipids [PDF]

BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background Optimal functionality of synthetic lung surfactant for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in preterm infants largely depends on the quality and quantity of the surfactant protein B (SP-B) peptide mimic and the lipid mixture.

EPR Studies on the Properties of Model Photoreceptor Membranes Made of Natural and Synthetic Lipids. [PDF]

Cell Biochem Biophys, 2017
The membranes of retina photoreceptors have unique lipid composition. They contain a high concentration of polyunsaturated docosahexaenoic acid, with six double bonds, and are enriched in phosphatidylethanolamines. Based on their phospholipid composition

Biochemical Changes in Fatty Acids, Hydrocarbons and Sterols as well as Total Lipids of Albino Rats Ingested some Synthetic Colourants and Flavourants as Food Additives

Notulae Scientia Biologicae, 2017
The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of ingested synthetic food colourants or flavourants on total lipids content feces. The feces of rats ingested synthetic food colourants or flavourants has more lipids than that of control feces.

Towards a Synthetic Mitochondrion. [PDF]

CHIMIA, 2018
Our group at the University of Bern uses biochemical and biophysical techniques to unravel details of the molecular mechanism of membrane proteins. Of special interest are the large multi-subunit complexes of the universally conserved respiratory chain ...

Ornithine lipids and other acyloxyacyl amino lipids: the coming-of-age story of a group of non-canonical membrane lipids. [PDF]

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol
Ornithine lipids (OLs) are phosphorus-free membrane lipids present in many bacteria, but absent from eukaryotes and archaea. Three pathways for OL synthesis have been reported to date. Conditions that induce OL synthesis include elevated temperature, low

Molbank, 2022
Synthesis of a double-charged cationic amphiphilic 1,4-dihydropyridine derivative with dodecyl ester groups at positions 3 and 5 of the 1,4-DHP ring was performed starting from Hantzsch type cyclization of dodecyl acetoacetate, 2-naphthaldehyde and ...

Lipid sponge droplets as programmable synthetic organelles [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Significance Organelles spatially and temporally orchestrate biochemical reactions in a cell to a degree of precision that is still unattainable in synthetic reaction systems. Additionally, organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contain highly interconnected and dense membrane networks that provide large reaction spaces for
