Plant sterols, which are well known dietary taken cholesterol lowering agents, can
incorporate into erythrocyte membranes. However, the influence of these compounds on …

One of the factors, which can strongly modify the cell membrane composition, is disordering
in membrane asymmetry, resulting from redistribution of lipids from inner to outer layer. Such …

In this work the Langmuir monolayers were used to prepare multicomponent systems
mimicking outer and inner layer of human erythrocyte membranes. The aim of performed …

The presence of dietary phytocompounds–plant sterols and stanols–in human plasma and
membranes raises the question on their influence on membrane properties. A good way to …

In this paper, systematic studies concerning the influence of selected oxysterols on the
structure and fluidity of human erythrocyte membrane modeled as Langmuir monolayers …

The activity of phytosterols on human organism includes the ability of these compounds to
incorporate into membranes. In the consequence the plant sterols are able to increase total …

In this work thermodynamic analysis of the interactions between lipids in ternary
sphingomyelin/DPPC/sterol Langmuir films were performed to compare the effect of …

In this work the properties of two ternary sphingomyelin/phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol
monolayers imitating erythrocyte membrane were studied at various content of sterol …

Sterols are one of the major components of cellular membranes. Although in mammalian
membranes cholesterol is a predominant sterol, in the human organism plant sterols …

In this paper the influence of one of phytosterols, namely β-sitosterol on cholesterol (Chol)/
phosphatidylcholine (PC)/ganglioside (GM3) monolayers was examined to find the …
