The interactions with and effects of five chemically distinct, bioactive phenolic compounds on the lipid bilayers of model dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes were investigated. Complementary analytical techniques, including differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and phosphorus and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), were employed in order to determine the location of the compounds within the bilayer and to correlate location with their effects on bilayer characteristics and liposomal stability. As compared to the phenolic compounds localized in the glycerol region of the DPPC head group within the bilayer, which enhanced the colloidal stability of the liposomes, compounds located closer to the center of the bilayer reduced vesicle stability as a function of time. Molecules present in the upper region of liposomal DPPC acyl chains (C1–C10) inhibited liposomal aggregation and size increase, perhaps due to tighter packing of adjoining DPPC molecules and increased surface exposure of DPPC phosphate head groups. These data may be useful for designing liposomal systems containing hydrophobic phenols and other small molecules, selecting appropriate analytical methods for determining their location within liposomal bilayers, and predicting their effects on liposome characteristics early in the liposome formulation development process. 相似文献

Two calix[4]resorcinarenes, which differ in the length of the alkyl chain on the methylene bridge between the aromatic rings, have been embedded in unilamellar liposomes prepared from 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine in three host/guest ratios, following two different procedures. The effect of the insertion of the guests has been evaluated through the measurements of the viscosity and the kinetic stability of the liposomal systems by means of the fluorescent probes pyrene and 5(6)-carboxyfluorescein. The presence of the guests reduces the viscosity of the liposomes, suggesting a modification of the bilayer structure. However, this does not affect liposome stability. A calix[4]resorcinarene cavitand with a more rigid conformation compared to the parent resorcinarene, has been also synthetized and embedded in liposomes. The free energy of the insertion of the substrates in the lipid bilayer has been evaluated through Molecular Dynamics simulations. 相似文献

The morphological characterization of aqueous dispersions of PC amphiphile and bolaamphiphile AEC was observed by transmission electron microscopy, the measurement of the liposomal membrane fluidity, differential scanning calorimetry, 5(6)-CF release from liposome and zeta potential measurement. Results indicate that the bolaamphiphile AEC can be included within conventional egg-PC liposome bilayer, which leads to the decrease of liposomal membrane fluidity (P) and the release behavior of 5(6)-CF. This behavior could be due to the property of bolaamphiphile AEC and the good miscibility of bolaamphiphile AEC with PC. 相似文献

The membrane-disrupting activity of 15 triterpenoid saponins, obtained from Chinese plants of the genus Aralia, was investigated using phosphatidylcholine liposomes with and without cholesterol. The permeability of the membrane was examined by monitoring the induced fluorescent dye release from the liposome. On the basis of the obtained results, the structure-activity relationship among glucuronides of oleanolic acid was discussed. This takes into account particularly the variation in the carboxyl function. Namely, the saponins could induce a permeability change on liposomal membrane without cholesterol when they are glycosylated at both C-3 and C-28 of the oleanolic acid. There also exists a great similarity in the time-course curves for dye-release within such saponins, reflecting their similar action with the lipid bilayer membrane. The saponins glycosylated only at C-3 could also exhibit the same activity with somewhat different action profiles when the glucuronic acid is esterified, while those with the free glucuronic acid required cholesterol in the liposomes to induce permeability change thereof. 相似文献

Using the EPR method, the temperature dependencies of the rates of ascorbic acid-induced reduction of nitroxyl radicals carrying the nitroxyl fragment in different positions of the fatty acid chain [N(4-methylidene++-1-oxyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-imidazolidine hydrazine)]myristic acid (I) and 1-oxyl-2,2-dimethyloxazolidine derivatives of 5-ketostearic (II) and 12-ketostearic (III) acids incorporated into egg phosphatidylcholine liposomal membranes were studied. The reduction rates, activation energy and shape of kinetic curves were found to be dependent on the mode of liposome preparation (ultrasonication or reverse phase evaporation), label type and chemical composition of the membrane (with regard to the presence or absence of stearic acid). The coefficients of partition and diffusion of ascorbic acid through the membrane lipid bilayer were calculated from the rates of transbilayer (flip-flop) diffusion of I and ascorbate penetration inside the liposomes containing Fremi salt nitroxyl radical. The experimental results formed the basis for a hypothesis on the dependence of the rate of membrane-embedded spin probe reduction on the ascorbate distribution pattern inside the lipid bilayer. 相似文献

Liposomes composed of egg phosphatidylcholine (EPC) (13.4%, of the acyl chains being polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)) and EPC/cholesterol (10:1 mol/mol) were studied for factors that affect liposomal lipid oxidative damage and hydrolysis upon long-term (16 months) storage. Factors studied include: (1) levels of lipid/water interface hydration, related to the presence of cholesterol in the lipid bilayer; (2) the membrane-associated antioxidant vitamin E; (3) the water-soluble antioxidant Tempol; and (4) exposure to light. Liposomal dispersions were stored at room temperature, either exposed to or protected from daylight, for a period of 16 months. Chemical and physical changes were monitored at several time points to assess oxidative and hydrolytic degradation of liposomal lipids. The conclusions of the study are: (1) PUFA are the most sensitive component of the liposome bilayer to oxidative degradation damage during long-term storage; (2) EPC liposomes are more sensitive to degradation during storage than EPC cholesterol liposomes, the presence of cholesterol in the lipid bilayer having a protective effect, probably due to its effect in decreasing the lipid-bilayer hydration; (3) oxidative degradation is the major process during long-term storage, having an earlier onset than the hydrolytic degradation: and (4) Tempol provided significantly better protection than vitamin E to EPC liposomal PUFA against oxidative damage during long-term storage. The relevance of cholesterol's presence, as a 'drying agent', in membranes containing PUFA to resistance of biological membranes to oxidative damage is discussed. 相似文献

Photoinduced reduction of methylviologen (MV2+) by ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA3-), which was sensitized by thiacarbocyanine dyes having long alkyl chains (C+m-n) embedded in palmitoyl lysophosphatidylcholine micelle and dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine liposomal membrane, was carried out. The formation rate of reduced methylviologen cation radical (MV+.) decreased with the time of irradiation with visible light, and the deceleration was more pronounced in the micellar solution. In kinetic studies, we found that the sensitizer divalent cation radical (C2+.m-n) is formed through the reaction of photoexcited sensitizer (C+*m-n) with MV2+ as an intermediate in this reaction, and that the reduction of C2+.m-n with EDTA3- inhibits the back reaction of MV+. with C2+.m-n. The inhibition was greater in the liposomal solution than in the micellar solution. This was ascribed to a higher concentration of EDTA3- on the liposomal surfaces through the electrostatic interaction between EDTA3- and the liposomal surfaces, the charge of which is attributed to the univalent cation sensitizer embedded in the liposomal membrane. The difference in the positive charge density of the surface of these lipid aggregates was due to the difference in the curvature of the micelle and the liposome. These results suggest that the dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine liposome is a more effective carrier than the palmitoyl lysophosphatidylcholine micelle for the production of MV+. in the photoreduction studied here. 相似文献

The crystal structures of alkyl 2-deoxy-α-d-arabino-hexopyranosides, with the alkyl chain lengths from C8 to C18, are established by the single crystal X-ray structural determination. The even-alkyl chain length derivatives crystallized orthorhombic, with space group P212121, whereas the odd-alkyl chain length derivatives crystallized monoclinic, with space group P21. The sugar moieties retained a 4C1 chair conformation and the conformation of the alkyl chains was all-trans. The molecules formed a bilayer structure, in which alkyl chains were interdigitated. The hydrogen bonds, originating from the sugar moieties, were observed in adjacent layers and also within the same layer, resulting in the formation of infinite chains. The alkyl chains arranged parallel to each other and formed planar structures. The thermal properties of the alkyl 2-deoxy glucosides were analyzed further. It was observed that none of the derivatives exhibited mesomorphism. This study establishes that the absence of the hydroxyl group at C-2 of the sugar moiety results in a non-mesogenic nature of the alkyl 2-deoxy-α-d-glycosides, as opposed to the profound mesogenic nature of the normal alkyl glycosides. 相似文献

We have previously shown that the location and orientation of compounds intercalated within the lipid bilayer can be qualitatively determined using an NMR chemical shift-polarity correlation. We describe herein the results of our application of this method to analogs of Vitamin E, ubiquinol and ubiquinone. The results indicate that tocopherol--and presumably the corresponding tocopheroxyl radical--reside adjacent to the interface, and can, therefore, abstract a hydrogen atom from ascorbic acid. On the other hand, the decaprenyl substituted ubiquinol and ubiquinone lie substantially deeper within the lipid membrane. Yet, contrary to the prevailing literature, their location is far from being the same. Ubiquinone-10 is situated above the long-chain fatty acid "slab". Ubiquinol-10 dwells well within the lipid slab, presumably out of "striking range" of Vitamin C. Nevertheless, ubiquinol can act as an antioxidant by reducing C- or O-centered lipid radicals or by recycling the lipid-resident tocopheroxyl radical. 相似文献

Various hydrophobic benzenediacetic esters, the corresponding benzenedipropionic esters, and branched alkyl esters were intercalated into DMPC liposomes, where the molar ratio (n/n) of ester:DMPC was 1:5. In the case of the very long-chain derivatives, double carbonyl peaks were observed in the 13C NMR spectrum. This doubling phenomenon was observed only for the carbonyl peaks, whose chemical shift is most sensitive to solvent polarity, and disappeared when the ester:DMPC molar ratio drops below 1:15. This doubling reflects the presence of two populations in these samples: one group includes those molecules which are intercalated within the liposome and feel the polarity corresponding to the liposomal microenvironment; the other consists of aggregates of these long-chain derivatives located in the extra-liposomal aqueous phase. 相似文献

In this research, a series of 4-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)coumarin conjugates were synthesized and their anticancer activities were evaluated in vitro against three human cancer cell lines, including human breast carcinoma MCF-7 cell, colon carcinoma SW480 cell and lung carcinoma A549 cell. To increase the biological potency, structural optimization campaign was conducted focusing on the C-4 position of 1,2,3-triazole and the C-6, C-7 positions of coumarin. In addition, to further evaluate the role of 1,2,3-triazole and coumarin for antiproliferative activity, 9 compounds possessing 4-(piperazin-1-yl)coumarin framework and 3 derivatives baring quinoline core were also synthesized. By MTT assay in vitro, most of the compounds display attractive antitumor activities, especially 23. Further flow cytometry assays demonstrate that compound 23 exerts the antiproliferative role through arresting G2/M cell-cycle and inducing apoptosis. 相似文献

The meso-tetra(alpha,alpha,alpha,alpha(o-pivalamidophenyl]porphinato iron-mono(1-lauryl-2-methylimidazole) complex embedded in the bilayer of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (liposomal heme) binds molecular oxygen reversibly at pH 7 and 37 degrees C. Orientation of the iron porphyrin complex in the phospholipid bilayer was studied by electric birefringence and dichroism. It was observed that both the phospholipid bibilayer of liposome and the porphyrin plane are oriented nearly in parallel to the electric field. Therefore the angle between the porphyrin plane and the bilayer is considered to be practically small. 相似文献

Incorporation of genetic material into the bilayer lipid vesicles (liposomes) and the subsequent transfer of liposomal content into cells or protoplasts appear to be a promising technique for transfer of genetic information. The following three methods are most frequently used to incorporate DNA into liposomes lipid microinjection into aqueous phase, multistep treatment of the lipid suspension by ultrasonication, Ca2+ ions and EDTA, reverse phase evaporation. Viral particles, chromosomes, nuclei, viral nucleic acids, plasmids and chromosomal DNA can be successfully transferred into animal and plant protoplasts by the described technique. Successful transformation of a number of microorganisms (Neurospora, E. coli, B. subtilis, Streptomyces, Mycoplasma) with the liposome incorporated DNA has also been reported. Transformation frequency can be considerably increased by optimizing the conditions of liposome formation or of liposome-protoplasts interaction. 相似文献

Liposomes were prepared from 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), which contained the water soluble proteinase alpha-chymotrypsin. This liposome entrapped enzyme showed selectivity for externally added substrates in that only small substrates (benzoyl-l-Tyr-p-nitroanilide or acetyl-l-Phe-p-nitro-anilide)-for which the liposome bilayer was permeable-were transformed into products. Large substrates (succinyl-l-Ala-l-Ala-l-Pro-l-Phe-p-nitroanilide or casein) could not penetrate from the external aqueous phase into the liposomes, and were not hydrolyzed. This substrate selectivity is entirely based on the compartimentation and permeability properties of the liposome microreactor. 相似文献

MSAR (1-sulfate-3-myristoyl-5-pentadecylbenzene) is a semisynthetic derivative of 5-n-pentadecylresorcinol (C15:0). MSAR exhibits hemolytic activity against sheep erythrocytes with a EH50 value of (35 +/- 1.7) microM. At low concentrations MSAR also exhibits the ability to protect cells against their hypoosmotic lysis. This protective effect is significant as, at 0.1 microM of MSAR, the extent of osmotically induced cell lysis is reduced by approx. 20%. It was demonstrated that the 9-anthroyloxystearic acid signal was most intensively quenched by MSAR molecules, suggesting a relatively deep location of these molecules within the lipid bilayer. MSAR causes an increase of the fluorescence of the membrane potential sensitive probe. This indicates an alteration of the surface charge and a decrease of the local pH value at the membrane surface. At low bilayer content (1-4 mol%) this compound causes a significant increase of the phospholipid bilayer fluidity (both under and above the main phase transition temperature) of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) liposomes. At this low content MSAR slightly decreases the main phase transition temperature (T(c)) value. The effects induced in the phospholipid bilayer by higher contents of MSAR molecules (5-10 mol%) make it impossible to determine the T(c) value and to evaluate changes of the membrane fluidity by using pyrene-labeled lipid. MSAR also causes a decrease of the activity of membrane-bound enzymes - red blood cell acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and phospholipase A2 (PLA2). MSAR decreases the AChE activity by 40% at 100 microM. The presence of MSAR in the liposomal membrane induces a complete abolishment of the lag time of the PLA2 activity, indicating that these molecules induce the formation of packing defects in the bilayer which may result from imperfect mixing of phospholipids. 相似文献

Artificial control of phage specificity may contribute to practical applications, such as the therapeutic use of phages and the detection of bacteria by their specific phages. To change the specificity of phage infection, gene products (gp) 37 and 38, expressed at the tip of the long tail fiber of T2 phage, were exchanged with those of PP01 phage, an Escherichia coli O157:H7 specific phage. Homologous recombination between the T2 phage genome and a plasmid encoding the region around genes 37-38 of PP01 occurred in transformant E. coli K12 cells. The recombinant T2 phage, named T2ppD1, carried PP01 gp37 and 38 and infected the heterogeneous host cell E. coli O157:H7 and related species. On the other hand, T2ppD1 could not infect E. coli K12, the original host of T2, or its derivatives. The host range of T2ppD1 was the same as that of PP01. Infection of T2ppD1 produced turbid plaques on a lawn of E. coli O157:H7 cells. The binding affinity of T2ppD1 to E. coli O157:H7 was weaker than that of PP01. The adsorption rate constant (ka) of T2ppD1 (0.17 x 10(-9)(ml CFU(-1) min(-1)) was almost 1/6 that of PP01 (1.10 x 10(-9)(ml CFU(-1) min(-1))). In addition to the tip of the long tail fiber, exchange of gene products expressed in the short tail fiber may be necessary for tight binding of recombinant phage. 相似文献

A series of benzimidazole-5-carboxylic acid alkyl ester derivatives carrying amide or amidine substituted methyl or phenyl groups at the position C-2 were synthesised and evaluated for antibacterial and antifungal activities against S. aureus, methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), S. faecalis, methicillin resistant S. epidermidis (MRSE), E. coli and C. albicans. The results showed that while all simple acetamides are essentially inactive, aromatic amides and amidines have potent antibacterial activities. Aromatic amidine derivatives 13 f-h exhibited the best inhibitory activity with 1.56-0.39 microg/mL MIC values against MRSA and MRSE. 相似文献

Antioxidant properties of gingerol related compounds from ginger 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) shows an antioxidant activity, and we have been engaging to determine the structures of more than 50 antioxidants isolated from the rhizomes of ginger. The isolated antioxidants are divided into two groups; gingerol related compounds and diarylheptanoids. In this study, structure-activity relationship of gingerol related compounds was evaluated. Gingerol related compounds substituted with an alkyl group bearing 10-, 12- or 14-carbon chain length were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of rhizomes using repeated chromatographic techniques. The antioxidant activities of these compounds were evaluated by the following measurements; 1) 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, 2) inhibitory effect on oxidation of methyl linoleate under aeration and heating by the Oil Stability Index (OSI) method, and 3) inhibitory effect on oxidation of liposome induced by 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AAPH). These results suggested that the substituents on the alkyl chain might contribute to both radical scavenging effect and inhibitory effect of autoxidation of oils, while inhibitory effects against the AAPH-induced peroxidation of liposome was somewhat influenced by the alkyl chain length; the antioxidant activity might be due to not only radical scavenging activity of antioxidants but also their affinity of the antioxidants to the substrates. 相似文献

Hairy roots of medicinal morning glory (Pharbitis nil) showed potent glucosylation activity against umbelliferone and aesculetin, so the glucosylation activity against several phenolic compounds was tested. Some coumarin derivatives and flavone derivatives having phenolic hydroxyl groups were incubated with the hairy roots. The coumarin derivatives and flavone derivatives almost disappeared from the culture medium in half a day. In the case of the coumarin derivatives, a 7-hydroxyl group was easily glucosylated. A methyl group at C-8 somewhat decreased the glucosylation to a hydroxyl group at C-7 of the coumarin skeleton. The 4-hydroxy coumarin derivatives were changed to acetophenone-type glucosides by incubation with the hairy roots through decarboxylation. Several flavonol derivatives were tested for glucosylation by the hairy roots. 3-Hydroxy flavone, 3.6-dihydroxyflavone and 3,7-dihydroxyflavone were glucosylated to give 3-glucosylated derivatives. Of these, 3,6-dihydroxyflavone was highly glucosylated, but not 3-hydroxyflavone or 3,7-dihydroxyflavone to the same degree. In the case of the flavones, a 3-hydroxy group could be predominantly glucosylated, and hydroxyl groups on the A and B ring of the flavones affected glucosylation by the hairy roots. 相似文献
