Abstract
In pulmonary surfactant (PS) the coexistence of the ordered (Lo) and disordered (Ld) lipid phases would be essential for an optimal activity. Electron spin resonance (ESR) of PS labeled with 5-doxil stearic acid shows two spectral components called S and W. S/W ratio could be understood as the ratio between the probe population in Lo and in Ld. Although the specificity of S/W as an indicator of Lo/Ld has not yet been demonstrated, S/W has been used qualitatively to study changes in Lo/Ld. The goal of this paper is to stablish the correlation between S/W parameter and the amount of lipids in Ld (%Ld) measured by the ESR TEMPO technique described in our previous work.
S/W and %Ld were measured in different PS samples under different experimental conditions. The results showed an inverse correlation between S/W and %Ld (r = −0.983; p < 0.001). We demonstrated that the S/W is sensible to the changes of Lo/Ld and can be used to quantify the %Ld.
期刊介绍：
Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology (RESPNB) publishes original articles and invited reviews concerning physiology and pathophysiology of respiration in its broadest sense.
Although a special focus is on topics in neurobiology, high quality papers in respiratory molecular and cellular biology are also welcome, as are high-quality papers in traditional areas, such as:
-Mechanics of breathing-
Gas exchange and acid-base balance-
Respiration at rest and exercise-
Respiration in unusual conditions, like high or low pressure or changes of temperature, low ambient oxygen-
Embryonic and adult respiration-
Comparative respiratory physiology.
Papers on clinical aspects, original methods, as well as theoretical papers are also considered as long as they foster the understanding of respiratory physiology and pathophysiology.
