General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is the most abundant phospholipid in eukaryotes and prime metabolite of glycerolipid metabolism. It is a vital component of the mucosal layer of the colon. NBD PC is a fluorophore with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD) labeled to the phosphatidylcholine.

Application

14:0-06:0 NBD PC may be used as a fluorescent marker in the preparation of hyaluronan (HA)-phospholipid medium for tribological studies against live cartilage. It might also be used as a substrate for type IV P-type ATPases (P4-ATPases), in the directed evolution approach to examine the molecular mechanisms of substrate backbone discrimination.

Biochem/physiol Actions

7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl phosphatidylcholine (NBD PC) functions as a fluorescent lipid analog, used in biological membranes to study various cellular processes. It plays a vital role as a strong bilayer-forming lipid.

Pre-clinical testing of hemiarthroplasty devices requires that the tribological conditions present in vivo with live cartilage be closely duplicated. A current limitation in the tribological testing of live cartilage involves the use of cell-culture media as lubricant. to develop and

Phospholipid flippases in the type IV P-type ATPase (P4-ATPases) family establish membrane asymmetry and play critical roles in vesicular transport, cell polarity, signal transduction, and neurologic development. All characterized P4-ATPases flip glycerophospholipids across the bilayer to the cytosolic leaflet of

Annexins are abundant cytoplasmic proteins, which bind to membranes that expose negatively charged phospholipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner. During cell injuries, the entry of extracellular Ca2+ activates the annexin membrane-binding ability, subsequently initiating membrane repair processes. However, the mechanistic action of

The success of nanoparticulate formulations in drug delivery depends on various aspects including their toxicity, internalization, and intracellular location. Vesicular assemblies consisting of phospholipids and amphiphilic block copolymers are an emerging platform, which combines the benefits from liposomes and polymersomes
