Popis: Lipid-like ion-pair amphiphile vesicles, or catanionic vesicles, have emerged as potential drug carriers. The effects of cholesterol on the properties of catanionic vesicles have yet been systematically studied. Here, we compared the effects of cholesterol on the structures and fluidities of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine liposomes and catanionic vesicles with similar main transition temperatures (T
