2H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were obtained at 30.87 MHz for 8% (w/v) aqueous dispersions of mixtures of bile salts (MBS), mixed intestinal lipids (MIL; myristic acid, monomyristoylglycerol, dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine = 5:1:1), and…
The interaction of eight n-alkanols with bilayers of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) has been studied by deuterium nuclear magnetic resonance (2H-NMR). At comparable temperatures and concentrations of solute in the bilayer, order parameters…
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent age-associated disease involving altered chondrocyte homeostasis and cartilage degeneration. The avascular nature of cartilage and the altered chondrocyte phenotype characteristic of OA severely limit the capacity…
