General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC), a phospholipid carries a positively charged quaternary amine and a negatively charged phosphate in its headgroup.

Application

18:0-16:0 PC (1-stearoyl-2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
  • in bilayer membranes to study the thermodynamic properties of phase transitions
  • as a carrier in unilamellar vesicles to evaluate the fragmentation of hydroperoxy endoperoxide 13-HP-Endo-PC in a model membrane
  • as a lipid standard in liquid chromatography−mass spectrometry analysis

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) can serve as a surfactant in the mucus.

Biologically active phospholipids that incorporate an oxidatively truncated acyl chain terminated by a γ-hydroxyalkenal are generated in vivo. The γ-hydroxyalkenal moiety protrudes from lipid bilayers like whiskers that serve as ligands for the scavenger receptor CD36, fostering endocytosis, e.g., of

The bilayer phase transitions of palmitoylstearoyl-phosphatidylcholine (PSPC), diheptadecanoyl-PC (C17PC) and stearoylpalmitoyl-PC (SPPC) which have the same total carbon numbers in the two acyl chains were observed by differential scanning calorimetry and high-pressure optical method. As the temperature increased, these bilayers

Phosphatidylcholines are the major phospholipid component of most eukaryotic cell membranes. Phosphatidylcholines have been shown to actively participate in regulatory and metabolic processes. Dysfunctional metabolic processes have been linked to human disease and can result in altered phosphatidylcholine structural features
