Description
General description
The molecular weight and exact mass are averages based on the polydispersity of polyethylene glycol (PEG).
Application
1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[methoxy(polyethylene glycol)-1000] (18:0 PEG1000 PE) might be used to prepare sterically stabilized liposome and study its characteristics by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) method. It is also suitable for use in cholesterol-free, PEGylated (CF-PEG) liposomes to study its long term stability when loaded with a hydrophilic drug, carboplatin.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphoethanolamine (PE) serves as a substrate for several phospholipids of the cell membrane. It is associated with phospholipid turnover. PE is also found to prevent tumor progression.
