Phenyltin compounds are known to be biologically active and, whan widely spread, are potentially hazardous. As their chemical structure suggests, they interact with the lipid fraction of the cell membrane. Their effect on the model phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol bilayer has been studied using fluor

The effects of diphenyltin dichloride (DPhT), triphenyltin chloride (TPhT) and tetraphenyltin (TTPhT) on the thermotropic phase behaviour of phosphatidylcholine bilayers were studied. All the phenyltin compounds investigated affected phase transitions differently. TTPhT broadened the main phase tran
The efflux of dimethylarsinic acid (DMA) from liposomes formed from egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) is increased when tributyltin chloride (TBT) is added to the extraliposomal compartment; however the addition of monobutyltin trichloride (MBT) slows down the efflux. When the liposomes are prepared fro
While adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an established malignancy marker and its clinical involvement in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is understood, the biological significance of its binding to adenosine deaminase complexing protein (CP = DPPIV = CD26) remains enigmatic. The role of lipid-pro
