title: Lipophilic ruthenium salen complexes: incorporation into liposome bilayers and photoinduced release of nitric oxide.
abstract: A new lipophilic Ru salen complex with cholesterol groups can be efficiently incorporated into liposome bilayers, allowing the photoinduced release of nitric oxide (NO) and the membrane transport of NO to coexisting liposomes.
