D and L etherlipid stereoisomers and liposomes
-
Page column 11-12, (2008/06/13)
A liposome having a lipid bilayer, where the lipid bilayer includes either the L or D stereoisomer of an ether lipid or a non-equal mixture of both. Most preferably the liposome also comprises (a) an underivatized phosphatidylcholine; (b) a sterol; (c) about 5-20 mole % of a phosphatidylethanolamine linked to a dicarboxylic acid at the ethanolamine group of the phosphatidylethanolamine, and (d) greater than about 10 mole % to less than about 30 mole % of either the L or D stereoisomer of an ether lipid. The liposome may be used as an anti-cancer or anti-inflammatory agent.

A series of chiral PAF agonists were synthesized. Modifications at the PAF structure were undertaken as far as the C2 substituents and the onium head groups are concerned. In parallel, molecular modelling studies including a MOPAC geometry optimization and the analysis of the electrostatic potential were performed on the newly synthesized and on already known PAF agonists, in order to gain a better insight into the stereoelectronic features required for interaction with the PAF receptor.
