Liposomes have been prepared from dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and its mixtures with phosphatidylinositol (PI) and stearylamine. The absorption of the liposomes by perfused rat liver has been studied as a function of blood level (0-7% haematocrit). It has been found that the rate constant for uptake of liposomes (perfusion constant, kp) is markedly reduced by addition of blood to the perfusate particularly in the haematocrit range 0-3%. The perfusion constant is dependent on the liposome composition and decreases with incorporation of PI and increases with incorporation of stearylamine into DPPC liposomes, but is independent of the initial size of the liposomes in the range of weight-average diameter from 40-400 nm. The possible effects of blood components on the liposomes and their subsequent absorption by the liver are discussed.  相似文献

Monensin, a car☐ylic ionophore was intercalated in liposomes (liposomal monensin) and its effect on cytotoxicities of ricin, Pseudomonas exotoxin A and diphtheria toxin in CHO cells was studied. Intercalation of monensin in liposomal bilayer is found to have no effect on its stability and interaction with cells. Liposomal monensin)(1 nM) substantially enhance the cytotoxicities of ricin (62-fold) and Pseudomonas exotoxin A (11.5-fold) while it has no effect on diphtheria toxin. This observed effect is highly dependent on the liposomal lipid composition. The potentiating ability of monensin (1 nM) in neutral vesicles is significantly higher (2.2-fold) as compared to negatively charged vesicles. This ability is drastically reduced by incorporation of stearylamine in liposomes and is found to be dependent on the density of stearylamine as well as on the concentration of serum in the medium. Monensin in liposomes containing 24 mol% stearylamine has a very marginal effect on the cytotoxicity of ricin (7.5-fold) which is further reduced (1.5-fold) in the presence of 20% serum. The uptake of 125I-gelonin from neutral vesicles is significantly higher (∼ 2.0-fold) than that from the negative vesicles. The uptake from positive vesicles is highly dependent on the concentration of stearylamine. The reduction in the lag period (30 min) of ricin action by monensin in neutral and negative vesicle is comparable with free monensin. However, monensin in positive vesicle has no effect on it. These studies have suggested that liposomes could be used as a delivery vehicle for monensin for selective elimination of tumor cells in combination with hybrid toxins.  相似文献

Lipid vesicle-cell interactions. II. Induction of cell fusion   总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
The ability of lipid vesicles of simple composition (lecithin, lysolecithin, and stearylamine) to induce cells of various types to fuse has been investigated. One in every three or four cells in monolayer cultures can be induced to fuse with a vesicle dose of about 100 per cell. At such dosages and for exposures of 15 min to 1 h, vesicles have essentially no effect on cell viability. Under anaerobic conditions, these cells lyse rather than fuse. Avian erythrocytes are readily fused with lipid vesicles in the presence of dextran. Fusion indices increase linearly with the zeta potential of the vesicles (increasing stearylamine content), indicating that contact between vesicle and cell membrane is required. Fusion indices increase sublinearly with increasing lysolecithin content. Divalent cations increase fusion indices at high vesicle doses. The data presented are consistent with the hypothesis that cell fusion occurs via simultaneous fusion of a vesicle with two adhering cell membranes.  相似文献

Lipid vesicle-cell interactions. I. Hemagglutination and hemolysis   总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
The interaction of lipid vesicles (liposomes) of several different compositions with erythrocytes has been investigated. Lecithin liposomes, rendered positively charged with stearylamine, exhibit potent hemagglutination activity in media containing low concentrations of electrolytes. The hemagglutination titer is found to be a linear function of the zeta potential of the lipid vesicles. Hemagglutination is reduced when the surface potential of the cells is made more positive by pH adjustment or enzyme treatment. Similarly, hemagglutination is reduced by increasing concentrations of electrolytes. Hemagglutination is examined theoretically and is shown to be consistent with vesicle-cell interactions that are due to only electrostatic forces. Vesicles containing lysolecithin in addition to lecithin and stearylamine cause lysis of erythrocytes, provided the lipids of the vesicles are above the crystal-liquid crystal phase transition temperature. In addition, hemolysis requires close juxtaposition of the vesicle to the cell membrane; vesicles precoated with antibodies exhibit severely diminished hemolytic activities, only a small fraction of which can be attributed to a reduction in hemagglutination titer. Evidence is presented indicating that a single vesicle is sufficient to lyse one cell. With regard to hemagglutination and hemolysis, lipid vesicles of simple composition mimic paramyxoviruses such as Sendai virus.  相似文献

Transmembrane pH gradients have previously been shown to induce an asymmetric transmembrane distribution of simple lipids that exhibit weak acid or basic characteristics (Hope, M.J. and Cullis, P.R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 4360-4366). In the present study we have examined the influence of proton gradients on the inter-vesicular exchange of stearylamine and oleic acid. We show that vesicles containing stearylamine immediately aggregate with vesicles containing phosphatidylserine and that disaggregation occurs subsequently as stearylamine equilibrates between the two vesicle populations. Despite visible flocculation during the aggregation phase, vesicle integrity is maintained. Stearylamine is the only lipid to exchange, fusion does not occur and vesicles are able to maintain a proton gradient. When stearylamine is sequestered to the inner monolayer in response to a transmembrane pH gradient (inside acidic) aggregation is not observed and diffusion of stearylamine to acceptor vesicles is greatly reduced. The ability of delta pH-dependent lipid asymmetry to modulate lipid exchange is also demonstrated for fatty acids. Oleic acid can be induced to transfer from one population of vesicles to another by maintaining a basic interior pH in the acceptor vesicles. Moreover, it is shown that the same acceptor vesicles are capable of depleting serum albumin of bound fatty acid. These results are discussed with respect to the mechanism and modulation of lipid flow between membranes both in vitro and in vivo.  相似文献

A procedure is described which inserts asymmetrically cerebroside sulfate (‘sulfatide’) into the outer leaflet of bilayered phospholipid vesicles. Cerebroside sulfate is adsorbed onto a cellulose, filter-paper support and, when incubated with phosphatidylcholine vesicles is transferred to and inserted into the outer leaflet of these vesicles. This transfer occurs at, or above the transition temperature of the phospholipid and follows a similar pattern with small or larger (‘fused’) unilamellar vesicles. The transfer is linear with time for 1–2 h and is maximal after about 6 h, when the sulfatide content reaches about 6 mol% of the total quantity of phospholipid, corresponding to about 10 mol% of the phospholipids present in the outer layer. Initial rates of sulfatide transfer were somewhat increased when the vesicles contained a positively charged lipid (e.g. stearylamine) and decreased when this lipid was negatively charged (e.g. dicetyl phosphate) or hydrophobic (e.g. cholesterol). Divalent ions markedly inhibited sulfatide transfer and monovalent ions did so to a lesser degree. Once incorporated into the outer leaflet of the vesicle, the sulfatide could not be removed by washing with buffer, 1 M NaCl or 1 M urea.  相似文献

The effect of the positive surface charge of unilamellar liposomes on the kinetics of their interaction with rat peritoneal macrophages was investigated using three sizes of liposomes: small unilamellar vesicles (approx. 25 nm diameter), prepared by sonication, and large unilamellar vesicles (100 nm and 160 nm diameter), prepared by the Lipoprep dialysis method. Charge was varied by changing the proportion of stearylamine added to the liposomal lipids (egg phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol, molar ratio 10:2.5). Increasing the stearylamine content of large unilamellar vesicles over a range of 0-25 mol% enhanced the initial rate of vesicle-cell interaction from 0.1 to 1.4 microgram lipid/min per 10(6) cells, and the maximal association from 5 to 110 micrograms lipid/10(6) cells. Cell viability was greater than 90% for cells incubated with large liposomes containing up to 15 mol% stearylamine but decreased to less than 50% at stearylamine proportions greater than 20 mol%. Similar results were obtained with small unilamellar vesicles except that the initial rate of interaction and the maximal association were less sensitive to stearylamine content. The initial rate of interaction, with increasing stearylamine up to 25 mol%, ranged from 0.5 to 0.7 microgram lipid/min per 10(6) cells, and the maximal association ranged from 20 to 70 micrograms lipid/10(6) cells. A comparison of the number and entrapped aqueous volume of small and large vesicles containing 15 mol% stearylamine revealed that although the number of large vesicles associated was 100-fold less than the number of small vesicles, the total entrapped aqueous volume introduced into the cells by large vesicles was 10-fold greater. When cytochalasin B, a known inhibitor of phagocytosis, was present in the medium, the cellular association of C8-LUV was reduced approx. 25% but association of SUV increased approx. 10-30%. Modification of small unilamellar vesicles with an amino mannosyl derivative of cholesterol did not increase their cellular interaction over that of the corresponding stearylamine liposomes, indicating that cell binding induced by this glycolipid may be due to the positive charge of the amine group on the sugar moiety. The results demonstrate that the degree of liposome-cell interaction with macrophages can be improved by increasing the degree of positive surface charge using stearylamine. Additionally, the delivery of aqueous drugs to cells can be further improved using large unilamellar vesicles because of their greater internal volume. This sensitivity of macrophages to vesicle charge and size can be used either to increase or reduce liposome uptake significantly by this cell type  相似文献

Unilamellar vesicles composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and either phosphatidic acid (PA) or phosphatidylglycerol (PG) partition to the upper poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-rich phase of a charge-sensitive 5%:5% (w/w) PEG 8000/Dextran T-500 phase system containing 10 mM sodium phosphate at pH 7, consistent with the vesicles bearing a net negative charge. When prepared in the presence of a pH gradient (interior acidic), PC/PA vesicles exhibit an increased partition to the top PEG-rich phase, consistent with a redistribution of the PA from the inner to the outer monolayer of the vesicle bilayer. Conversely, when prepared in the presence of a pH gradient (interior basic), PC/PG vesicles exhibit a decreased top-phase partition, consistent with a redistribution of the PG from the outer to the inner monolayer of the vesicle bilayer. Unilamellar vesicles composed of PC and stearylamine partition to the lower dextran-rich phase of a 5%:5% (w/w) PEG 8000/Dextran T-500 phase system containing 10 mM sodium phosphate at pH 8.5, consistent with the vesicles bearing a net positive charge. When prepared in the presence of a pH gradient (interior acidic), conditions under which the stearylamine is trapped on the inner monolayer of the bilayer, the vesicles now partition predominantly to the interface in a manner similar to vesicles composed of PC alone. These results demonstrate that partitioning in aqueous two-phase polymer systems is a sensitive method for monitoring the asymmetry of charged lipids in model membrane systems and also suggests that partitioning in charge-sensitive systems depends only on the physical nature of the exterior surface of the membrane.  相似文献

The binding of dextran sulfate to phospholipid liposomes was investigated by microelectrophoresis experiments. The polyanion binds to neutral phospholipid liposomes (DMPC and PE) only in the presence of Ca2+. If positively charged stearylamine is incorporated in the vesicles dextran sulfate is bound without Ca2+. Negatively charged phospholipids as PS do not bind dextran sulfate, even in the presence of millimolar concentrations of Ca2+. The adsorption of dextran sulfate results in an aggregation of vesicles due to a bridging mechanism. In all cases the aggregation is followed by a disaggregation toward higher dextran sulfate concentrations. The disaggregation process starts at polymer concentrations smaller than the concentration of the onset of saturation of the adsorption. By use of the probe dilution method a fusion of small DMPC and DMPC/PE vesicles in the presence of Ca2+ and dextran sulfate was found.  相似文献

The phosphatidylcholine exchange protein from bovine liver catalyzes the transfer of phosphatidylcholine between rat liver mitochondria and sonicated liposomes. The effect of changes in the liposomal lipid composition and ionic composition of the medium on the transfer have been determined. In addition, it has been determined how these changes affected the electrophoretic mobility i.e. the surface charge of the membrane particles involved. Transfer was inhibited by the incorporation of negatively charged phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol into the phosphatidylcholine-containing vesicles; zwitterionic phosphatidyl-ethanolamine had much less of an inhibitory effect while positively charged stearylamine stimulated. The cation Mg2+ and, to a lesser extent, K+ overcame the inhibitory effect exerted by phosphatidic acid, in that concentration range where these ions neutralized the negative surface charge most effectively. Under conditions where Mg2+ and K+ affected the membrane surface charge relatively little inhibition was observed. In measuring the protein-mediated transfer between a monolayer and vesicles consisting of only phosphatidylcholine, cations inhibited the transfer in the order La3+ greater than Mg2+ larger than or equal to Ca2+ greater than K+ = Na+. Inhibition was not related to the ionic strength, and very likely reflects an interference of these cations with an electrostatic interaction between the exchange protein and the polar head group of phosphatidylcholine.  相似文献

The kinetics of the partitioning of lipid vesicles containing acidic phospholipids in aqueous two-phase polymer systems are dependent upon the vesicle size; the larger the vesicles, the more readily they absorb to the interfaces between the two polymer phases and hence are cleared from the top phase as phase separation proceeds. The partitioning of neutral lipid vesicles is principally to the bulk interface and is the same in phase systems of both low and high electrostatic potential difference between the two phases (delta psi). The incorporation of negatively charged lipids has two effects upon partition. First, vesicles with negatively charged lipids exhibit increased bottom phase partitioning in phases of low delta psi due to an enhanced wetting of the charged lipids by the lower phase. Second, the presence of a negatively charged group on the vesicle surface results in increased partition to the interface and top phase in phase systems of high delta psi. Differences observed in the partition of vesicles containing various species of negatively charged lipid thus reflect a competition between these two opposing factors.  相似文献

Upon introduction into phosphatidylcholine vesicles, the 13C magnetic resonance peaks of the aromatic resonances of tetracaine are broadened while the T1 relaxation times show little change. Addition of tetracaine to vesicles containing 30% cholesterol produces a similar broadening in the 13C NMR spectrum of tetracaine. Nuclear magnetic resonance parameters of phosphatidylcholine in vesicles which are unchanged by the addition of equimolar tetracaine include 13C T1 relaxation time and 31P linewidth, T1 relaxation time, and nuclear Overhauser effect enhancement. These results are interpreted as indicating a hydrophobic interaction between hydrocarbon portions of the anesthetic and phospholipid bilayer. The rotational correlation time of tetracaine about its long axis in the vesicles has been calculated from the 13C NMR spin lattice relaxation times to be about 10(-10.3) s and is unchanged by incorporation into the phospholipid bilayer. The positively charged ammonium group of tetracaine interacts with the negatively charged phosphate group of the vesicle lipids. Using shift reagents and 31P NMR, tetracaine has been shown to displace cations from the bilayer surface, and does not undergo fast flip-flop across the vesicle bilayer.  相似文献

Membrane vesicles composed of fatty acids can be made to grow and divide under laboratory conditions, and thus provide a model system relevant to the emergence of cellular life. Fatty acid vesicles grow spontaneously when alkaline micelles are added to buffered vesicles. To investigate the mechanism of this process, we used stopped-flow kinetics to analyze the dilution of non-exchanging FRET probes incorporated into preformed vesicles during growth. Oleate vesicle growth occurs in two phases (fast and slow), indicating two pathways for the incorporation of fatty acid into preformed vesicles. We propose that the fast phase, which is stoichiometrically limited by the preformed vesicles, results from the formation of a "shell" of fatty acid around a vesicle, followed by rapid transfer of this fatty acid into the preformed vesicle. The slower phase may result from incorporation of fatty acid which had been trapped in an intermediate state. We provide independent evidence for the rapid transformation of micelles into an aggregated intermediate form after transfer from high to low pH. Our results show that the most efficient incorporation of added oleate into oleic acid/oleate vesicles occurs under conditions that avoid a large transient increase in the micelle/vesicle ratio.  相似文献

The effect of incorporation of glycophorin, the major integral sialoglycoprotein of the erythrocyte membrane, into bovine brain phosphatidylserine (PS) vesicles on the Ca2+-induced fusion of these vesicles has been investigated. Fusion was monitored by the terbium-dipicolinic acid fluorescence assay for the mixing of aqueous contents of the vesicles and by a resonance energy transfer assay that follows the intermixing of membrane lipids. The Ca2+-induced fusion of PS vesicles is completely prevented by incorporation of glycophorin (molar ratio of PS/glycophorin = 400-500:1) for Ca2+ concentrations up to 50 mM. The ability to fuse is partially restored after treating the glycophorin-containing vesicles with neuraminidase, which removes the negatively charged sialic acid residues of glycophorin. Fusion is further facilitated by trypsin treatment, removing the entire extravesicular glycosylated head group of glycophorin. However, Ca2+-induced fusion of enzyme-treated glycophorin-PS vesicles proceeds at a slower rate and to a smaller extent than fusion of protein-free PS vesicles. The influence of the aggregation state of the glycophorin molecules on fusion has been investigated in experiments using wheat germ agglutinin (WGA). Addition of WGA to the glycophorin-PS vesicles does not induce fusion. However, upon subsequent addition of Ca2+, distinct fusion occurs concomitantly with release of vesicle contents. The inhibition of Ca2+-induced fusion of PS vesicles by incorporation of glycophorin is explained by a combination of steric hindrance and electrostatic repulsion between the vesicles by the glycosylated head group of glycophorin and a direct bilayer stabilization by the intramembranous hydrophobic part of the glycophorin molecule.  相似文献

The activation of prothrombin by factor Xa is strongly accelerated by negatively charged phospholipids plus calcium ions. In this paper we report that positively charged membranes can also stimulate prothrombin activation provided that the activation reaction is carried out in the absence of calcium ions. Membranes composed of a mixture of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and positively charged lipids like stearylamine, sphingosine, or hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide caused a more than 1000-fold increase of the rate of prothrombin activation. Prothrombin activation by the factor Xa-factor Va complex was also considerably stimulated by such membranes. Stimulation of prothrombin activation by positively charged membranes was suppressed at high ionic strength. This suggests that electrostatic attraction of negatively charged proteins by positively charged membranes is the major driving force in the association of prothrombin and factor Xa with the lipid surface. Calcium ions strongly inhibited prothrombin activation on vesicles composed of PC and stearylamine (80/20 M/M), which indicates that the regions of prothrombin and/or factor Xa containing gamma-carboxyglutamic acid (gla) are important for the interaction of these proteins with positively charged membranes. The importance of the gla domain was confirmed by the observation that PC/stearylamine vesicles had much less effect on the reactions between proteins that lack gla residues [gla-domainless (des-1-45) prothrombin, prethrombin 1, prethrombin 2, or gla-domainless (des-1-44) factor Xa]. The efficiency of prothrombin and prothrombin derivatives to act as substrate decreased in the order prothrombin greater than des-1-45-prothrombin = prethrombin 1 greater than prethrombin 2, while prothrombin activation by gla-domainless (des-1-44) factor Xa was hardly stimulated by positively charged membranes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The incorporation of the positively charged stearylamine into phosphatidylcholine liposomes was studied by measuring electrophoretic mobilities. Up to a molar ratio SA/PC = 0.5 an increase of the positive zeta potential can be observed. Addition of the negatively charged macromolecule dextran sulfate leads to a change of the sign of the surface potential of the PC/SA liposomes indicating binding of the macromolecule to the surface. This process is accompanied by an increase in turbidity, which is dependent on the molecular weight of the dextran sulfate and the SA concentration (measured by turbidimetry). Using the NBD/Rh and Pyr-PC fluorescence assays the fusion of SA containing liposomes was investigated. A strong influence of the SA content and molecular weight of dextran sulfate on the fusion extent was observed. The fusion extent is proportional to the SA content in the PC membrane and the molecular weight of dextran sulfate. PC/SA/PE liposomes exhibit a higher fusion extent after addition of dextran sulfate compared to PC/SA liposomes indicating that PE additionally destabilizes the bilayer. Freeze-fracture electron microscopy reveals that the reaction products are large complexes composed of multilamellar stacks of tightly packed, straight membranes and aggregated vesicles. The tight packing of the membranes in the stacks (and the narrow contact of the aggregated vesicles) indicates a strong adherence of opposite membrane surfaces induced by dextran sulfate.  相似文献

Stable unilamellar vesicles formed spontaneously upon mixing aqueous suspensions of long-chain phospholipid (synthetic, saturated, and naturally occurring phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and sphingomyelin) with small amounts of short-chain lecithin (fatty acid chain lengths of 6-8 carbons) have been characterized by using NMR spectroscopy, negative staining electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. This method of vesicle preparation can produce bilayer vesicles spanning the size range 100 to greater than 1000 A. The combination of short-chain lecithin and long-chain lecithin in its gel state at room temperature produces relatively small unilamellar vesicles, while using long-chain lecithin in its liquid-crystalline state produces large unilamellar vesicles. The length of the short-chain lecithin does not affect the size distribution of the vesicles as much as the ratio of short-chain to long-chain components. In general, additional short-chain decreases the average vesicle size. Incorporation of cholesterol can affect vesicle size, with the solubility limit of cholesterol in short-chain lecithin micelles governing any size change. If the amount of cholesterol is below the solubility limit of micellar short-chain lecithin, then the addition of cholesterol to the vesicle bilayer has no effect on the vesicle size; if more cholesterol is added, particle growth is observed. Vesicles formed with a saturated long-chain lecithin and short-chain species exhibit similar phase transition behavior and enthalpy values to small unilamellar vesicles of the pure long-chain lecithin prepared by sonication. As the size of the short-chain/long-chain vesicles decreases, the phase transition temperature decreases to temperatures observed for sonicated unilamellar vesicles. FTIR spectroscopy confirms that the incorporation of the short-chain lipid in the vesicle bilayer does not drastically alter the gauche bond conformation of the long-chain lipids (i.e., their transness in the gel state and the presence of multiple gauche bonds in the liquid-crystalline state).  相似文献

Adhesion and spreading of negatively charged unilamellar vesicles composed of POPG/POPC and DPPG/DPPC on positively charged self-assembly monolayers of 11-amino-1-undecanethiol were monitored by means of thickness shear mode (TSM) resonators with a fundamental frequency of 5 MHz. Changes of frequency and motional resistance upon vesicle adsorption were recorded as a function of surface charge density and lyotropic phase state of the lipids. From the readout of the TSM resonator, changes of the shape of the vesicles as well as the formation of supported lipid bilayers can be inferred in a quantitative manner. Increasing surface charge densities on the vesicles, which are tunable by the POPG content, led to decreasing frequency and resistance changes. At very high PG content, a lower limit of 3–12 Hz was found, indicative of the formation of planar bilayers due to vesicle rupture induced by the strong electrostatic interaction forces. Vesicles composed of DPPG/DPPC were less susceptible to deformation and rupture, a fact that can be attributed to the higher bending rigidity of DPPG/DPPC liposomes. More than 70 mol% of DPPG were needed to induce adhesion-controlled rupture of surface-attached vesicles, while only 30–50% of POPG were sufficient to form planar lipid bilayers on the quartz.  相似文献

It has been demonstrated that cowpea chlorotic mottle virus RNA encapsulated in phosphatidyl serine/cholesterol reverse evaporation vesicles (REV) could infect cowpea mesophyll protoplasts under conditions known to enhance liposome-protoplast interactions. Positively charged phosphatidylcholine/stearylamine multilamellar liposomes did not deliver functional CCMV RNA despite their very high nucleic acid trapping capacity and their high affinity for protoplasts.  相似文献
