Description
General description
Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) are phospholipids, that are abundantly present in the tissues of animal. PCs consist of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in the sn-1 and sn-2 position respectively.
Application
14:0-16:0 PC (1-myristoyl-2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
in the bilayer membrane to study its miscibility with d-erythro-N-palmitoyl-sphingomyelin (16:0-SM) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)
as a negative control in stimulation studies to study its effect on insect immune deficiency (IMD) pathway
in generating Wnt3a liposomes
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) participates in reducing the level of blood lipid and cholesterol.
