Fig. 3. Cholesterol-binding properties of CLA-PCs.

Fig. 3

The ability of the liposomes prepared from each of the CLA-PCs to extract labeled cholesterol from [14C]-cholesterol-β-methyl cyclodextrin complex was determined as described in the text, in the absence and presence of 20 mol% egg SM. The amount of cholesterol extracted by control LA-PC (16:0–18:2, unconjugated) was taken as the baseline, and all other values were expressed as % above or below that value. The values are shown are mean ± S.D of 3–5 experiments. * p< 0.05, and ** p<0.005 compared to LA-PC alone.

† p<0.005, compared to LA-PC + 20 mol% SM.
