Abstract (original English)

Background Recently, Phosphatidylcholine (PC) has been used as an off-label treatment for lipolysis injection, which is associated with inflammatory reaction due to sodium deoxycholate, an emulsifier, so that inflammation as side effect occurs in those patients. Liposome formulation from soybean lipid was thought to be a better and safer alternative. This study aimed to analyze the mechanism of Liposomal Soybean Phosphatidylcholine (LSPC) extract from Indonesian soybeans (containing 26% PC) to induce Adipose-derived Stem Cells (ASCs) death in vitro . Methods Liposomes were prepared using thin film hydration method followed by a stepwise extrusion process to produce a small amount of 41.0-71.3 nm. Liposomal soybean phosphatidylcholine extract (LSPCE), liposomal purified PC (LPCC), and solution of PC+SD were used for comparison. Annexin V fluorescein Isothiocyanate/Propidium Iodide (FITC/PI) double staining by flow cytometry and also measurement of caspase-3 activity using ELISA were used to quantify the rate of apoptosis. ASCs viability was measured using MTT assay after induction with liposomes. Morphological changes were shown using a phase-contrast, inverted microscope and Transmission-Electron Microscope (TEM). Results The flow cytometry results showed that cells treated with both LSPCE and LPCC showed increase in early apoptosis beginning at 6 hr after incubation, which was
