General description

Lyso Phosphatidylcholine (LPC) or lysolecithin is a minor phospholipid in plasma (8-12%) and cellular membranes (<3%).

Application

Soy Lyso PC has been used in the synthesis of 15-methylhexadecanoic acid (15-MHDA) and glycerophospholipids.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Soy Lyso phosphocholine or phosphotidylcholine (PC) is among the other lipids present in soybean lecithin. Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a bioactive proinflammatory lipid. It is generated during pathological activities and is implicated in atherosclerosis and inflammatory diseases. LPC modifies the functions of numerous cell-types, including smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, macrophages, monocytes, and T-cells. LPC activates several second messengers and is involved in signal transduction mechanisms.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the transfection potential of chitosan-coated, green-fluorescent magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) (chi-MNPs) after encapsulation inside polyethylglycol (PEG)ylated liposomes that produced lipid-encapsulated chitosan-coated MNPs (lip-MNPs), and also to evaluate how these particles would distribute
