General description

3-Hydroxypropionitrile, at low 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) surface excesses, has the phospholipid oriented with the polar headgroups pointing out of the solution.

3-Hydroxypropionitrile serves as an intermediate through nucleophilic addition or hydrogenation to synthesize heterocyclic rings, mercaptopropanoic acid, or cyclophosphamide.

Phospholipids are a main component of cell membranes. Therefore, the experimental investigation of the self-organization of phospholipids is of great interest. Here we present results concerning the orientation of the phospholipid 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC) at the surface of the polar solvents

Sphingolipid derivatives cause diverse effects towards the regulation of intracellular free Ca(2+) concentrations ([Ca(2+)](i)) in a multitude of nonexcitable cells. In the present investigation, the effect of C-8 ceramide-1-(2-cyanoethyl) phosphate (C1CP) on store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) entry was investigated. C1CP evoked
