Description

L-aPhosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid that is a major component of cell membranes. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of human tumor cells in culture and to have anticancer activity. L-aPhosphatidylcholine has been shown to cause an increase in the size of cultured mouse mammary tumor cells, which may be due to its ability to stimulate the production of cellular growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF). The effects of L-aPhosphatidylcholine on ascitic tumor cells have also been studied and found to be pseudoplastic with localization at the interface between the two phases. Tumor inhibition was seen when L-aPhosphatidylcholine was applied topically, but not when it was given orally. This may be due to its lack of uptake by tumors when given orally.
