Intact erythrocytes were spin-labeled with various classes of phospholipid label. The ESR spectrum for phosphatidylcholine spin label was distinctly different from those for phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidic acid spin labels. The overall splitting for the former (52.5 G) was markedly larger than those for the others (approx. 47 G), suggesting a more rigid phosphatidylcholine bilayer phase and more fluid phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylserine phases in the erythrocyte membrane. Evidence for asymmetric distribution of phospholipids in the membrane was obtained. Spin-labeled phosphatidylcholine incorporated into erythrocytes was reduced immediately by cystein and Fe3+, while the reduction of spin-labeled phosphatidylserine was very slow. The present results therefore suggest asymmetric fluidity in erythrocyte membrane; a more rigid outer layer and a more fluid inner layer. The heterogeneity in the lipid structure was also manifested in the temperature dependence of the fluidity. The overall splitting for phosphatidylcholine spin label showed two inflection points at 18 and 33 °C, while that for phosphatidylserine spin label had only one transition at 30 °C.When the spin-labeled erythrocytes were hemolyzed, the marked difference in the ESR spectra disappeared, indicating homogenization of the heterogeneous fluidity. Mg2+ or prevented the hemolysis-induced spectral changes. Ca2+ did not prevent the homogenization and acted antagonistically to Mg2+. The heterogeneity preservation by Mg2+ was nullified by trypsin, pronase or added inside the cell. Some inner proteins may therefore be involved in maintaining the heterogeneous structure. The protecting action of Mg2+ was dependent on hemolysis temperature, starting to decrease at 18 °C and vanishing at 40 °C. The present study suggests that the heterogeneity in the fluidity of intact erythrocyte membranes arises from interactions between lipids and proteins in the membrane and also from interactions between the membrane constituents and the inner proteins. Concentration of cholesterol in the outer layer may also partly contribute to the heterogeneity. 相似文献

- 1. 1. The 31P-NMR characteristics of intact rat liver mitochondria, mitoplasts and isolated inner mitochondrial membranes, as well as mitochondrial phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine, have been examined.
- 2. 2. Rat liver mitochondrial phosphatidylethanolamine hydrated in excess aqueous buffer undergoes a bilayer-to-hexagonal (HII) polymorphic phase transition as the temperature is increased through 10°C, and thus prefers the HII) arrangement at 37°C. Rat liver mitochondrial phosphatidylcholine, on the other hand, adopts the bilayer phase at 37°C.
- 3. 3. Total inner mitochondrial membrane lipids, dispersed in an excess of aqueous buffer, exhibit 31P-NMR spectra consistent with a bilayer arrangement for the majority of the endogeneous phospholipids; the remainder exhibit spectra consistent with structure allowing isotropic motional averaging. Addition of Ca2+ results in hexagonal (HII) phase formation for a portion of the phospholipids, as well as formation of ‘lipidic particles’ as detected by freeze-fracture techniques.
- 4. 4. Preparations of inner mitochondrial membrane at 4 and 37°C exhibit 31P-NMR spectra consistent with a bilayer arrangement of the large majority of the endogenous phospholipids which are detected. Approx. 10% of the signal intensity has characteristics indicating isotropic motional averaging processes. Addition of Ca2+ results in an increase in the size of this component, which can become the dominant spectral feature.
- 5. 5. Intact mitochondria, at 4°C, exhibit 31P-NMR spectra arising from both phospholipid and small water-soluble molecules (ADP, Pi, etc.). The phospholipid spectrum is characteristic of a bilayer arrangement. At 37°C the phospholipids again give spectra consistent with a bilayer; however, the labile nature of these systems is reflected by increased isotropic motion at longer (at least 30 min) incubation times.
- 6. 6. It is suggested that the uncoupling action of high Ca2+ concentrations on intact mitochondria may be related to a Ca2+-induced disruption of the integrity of the inner mitochondrial phospholipid bilayer. Further, the possibility that non-bilayer lipid structures such as inverted micelles occur in the inner mitochondrial membrane cannot be excluded.

- 1. (1) Human erythrocyte membranes, when dialysed against water at pH 9.5, were partly solubilized, losing 80% of the membrane proteins and 65% of the membrane lipids. Sodium dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis of the particulate material revealed selective removal of proteins from the membrane.
- 2. (2) The lipid-rich particulate material remaining retained the ability to bind specifically the nucleoside transport inhibitor, nitrobenzylthioinosine, previously shown to bind selectively to the nucleoside transport mechanism of whole erythrocytes and erythrocyte ghosts.

Phospholipid localization in the plasma membrane of Friend erythroleukemic cells and mouse erythrocytes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The distribution of phospholipids over outer and inner layers of the plasma membranes of Friend erythroleukemic cells (Friend cells) and mature mouse erythrocytes has been determined. The various techniques which have been applied to establish the phospholipid localization include the following: phospholipase A2, phospholipase C, and sphingomyelinase C treatment, fluorescamine labeling of phosphatidylethanolamine, and a phosphatidylcholine transfer protein mediated exchange procedure. The data obtained with these different techniques were found to be in good agreement with each other. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylinositol were found to be distributed symmetrically over both layers of the plasma membrane of Friend cells. In contrast, sphingomyelin was found to be enriched in the outer layer of the membrane (80-85%), and phosphatidylserine appeared to be present mainly in the inner layer (80-90%). From these results, it was calculated that the outer and inner layers accounted for 46% and 54%, respectively, of the total phospholipid complement of that membrane. Analogous studies on the plasma membrane of mature mouse erythrocytes showed that the transbilayer distribution of the total phospholipid mass appeared to be the same as in the plasma membrane of the Friend cell, namely, 46% and 54% in outer and inner layers, respectively. The outer layer of this membrane contains 57% of the phosphatidylcholine, 20% of the phosphatidylethanolamine, 85% of the sphingomyelin, and 42% of the phosphatidylinositol, and none of the phosphatidylserine was present.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

- 1. 1. Cobra venom phospholipase A2 from three different sources has been fractionated into different isoenzymes by DEAE ion-exchange chromatography.
- 2. 2. Treatment of intact human erythrocytes with the various isoenzymes revealed significant differences in the degree of phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis in those cells.
- 3. 3. It is argued that the plateaus observed in dose-response curves for such treatments may be caused by an increase in lateral surface pressure within the outer half of the membrane due to the production of free fatty acids and lyso-compounds.

(1) Using the phosphatidylcholine specific transfer protein from bovine liver, native phosphatidylcholine from intact human erythrocytes was replaced by a variety of different phosphatidylcholine species without altering the original phospholipid and cholesterol content. (2) The replacement of native phosphatidylcholine by the disaturated species, 1,2-dipalmitoyl- and 1,2-distearoylphosphatidylcholine, proceeded at a low rate and extensive replacement could only be achieved by repeatedly adding fresh donor vesicles. The replacement by disaturated molecules was accompanied by a gradual increase in osmotic fragility of the cells, finally resulting in hemolysis when 40% of the native PC had been replaced. Up to this lytic concentration, the replacement did not affect the permeability of the membrane for potassium ions. (3) Essentially, all of the PC in the outer monolayer of the membrane could be replaced by 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl- and 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoylphosphatidylcholine. These replacements did not alter the osmotic fragility of the cells, nor the K+ permeability of the membrane. (4) Increasing the total degree of unsaturation of the phosphatidylcholine species modified the properties of the membrane considerably. Replacement by 1,2-dilinoleoylphosphatidylcholine resulted in a progressive increase in osmotic fragility and hemolysis started to occur after 30% of the native PC had been replaced by this species. K+ permeability was found to be slightly increased in this case. Cells became leaky for K+ upon the introduction of 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoylphosphatidylcholine in the membrane. The increased permeability was also reflected by an apparent increase in the resistance of the cells against osmotic shock. (5) The conclusions to be drawn are that (i) 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl- and 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoylphosphatidylcholine are species which fit most optimally into the erythrocyte membrane; (ii) loss of membrane stability results from an increase in the degree of saturation of phosphatidylcholine () and (iii) the permeability is enhanced by increasing the content of highly unsaturated species (). 相似文献

Spin labeled analogs of phosphatidylcholine were used to study the transverse diffusion (flip-flop) of phospholipids in the erythrocyte membrane. The nitroxide spin label was placed either on the β acyl chain or on the choline group. These labeled phosphatidylcholine molecules were incorporated into the membrane by incubation of the red cells at 22°C with sonicated spin-labeled phosphatidylcholine vesicles from which all traces of free fatty acids and lyso derivatives were carefully removed by bovine serum albumin treatment. This incorporation did not provide any change in the morphology of the cell as indicated by scanning electron microscopy. When spin-labeled phosphatidylcholine, having a nitroxide on the β chain but near the polar head-group, was incorporated into the erythrocyte membrane, ascorbate treatment at 0dgC allows selective reduction of the signal coming from the outer layer of the membrane. When the label was on the polar head-group, the inner content of the erythrocyte rapidly reduced the label facing the cytoplasm, thus creating a spontaneous anisotropy of the labeling. The anisotropic distribution of spin-labeled phosphatidylcholine in the erythrocyte membrane was found to be stable at 22 and 37°C for more than 4 h. It is therefore concluded that the rate of outside-inside and inside-outside transition is so slow that the anisotropic distribution of the phospholipids in the erythrocyte membrane can be maintained during cell life. 相似文献

When human erythrocytes are incubated with certain phospholipids, the cells become spiculate echinocytes, resembling red cells subjected to metabolic starvation or Ca2+ loading. The present study examines (1) the mode of binding of saturated phosphatidylcholines and egg lysophosphatidylcholine to erythrocytes and (2) the quantitative relationship between phospholipid incorporation and red cell shape. We find that the phospholipids studied become intercalated into erythrocyte membranes, not simply adsorbed to the cell surface. Spin-labeling and radiolabeling data show that the incorporation of (4 +/- 1) X 10(6) molecules of exogenous phosphatidylcholine per cell converts discocytes to stage 3 echinocytes with about 35 conical spicules. This amount of lipid incorporation is estimated to expand the red cell membrane outer monolayer by 1.7% +/- 0.6%. Calculations of the inner and outer monolayer surface areas of model discocytes and stage 3 echinocytes yield an estimated difference of 0.7% +/- 0.2%. 相似文献

The phospholipid and fatty acid composition of rat erythrocytes was studied after stress exposure—swimming until drowning. This kind of stress was found to increase the content of phospholipids typical for the outer membrane layer (phosphatidylcholine by 13% and sphingomyelin by 23%). In contrast, the content of acid phospholipids, referring to the inner membrane layer, decreased (phosphatidylethanolamine by 16%, phosphatidylserine by 14% and monophosphoinositide by 23%). Our data indicate that under stress conditions the erythrocyte membrane undergoes certain structural changes, which appear to affect its functional properties. At the same time, the content of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, as well as their “unsaturation index”, remain basically intact under the above stress conditions, probably, preserving functional properties of the erythrocyte membrane by compensating its impaired phospholipid structure. Based on the analysis of absorption spectra of lipid extracts, stress was established to induce a 2-fold spectrum enhancement in the heme-specific range of 390–410 nm. The appearance of heme in the extract indicates hemoglobin saponification induced by changes in pH of the erythrocyte internal environment. Indeed, during lipid extraction hemoglobin converts into a disordered state due to the effect not only of temperature and pH of the medium, but also of organic solvents, having a lower capacity to form hydrogen bonds than water. Probably, a small portion of phospholipids undergoes trans-esterification during their extraction from erythrocytes by the chloroform–methanol mixture. 相似文献

Dual effect of membrane cholesterol on simple and mediated transport processes in human erythrocytes
The influence of cholesterol on simple and facilitated transport processes across the membrane of intact human erythrocytes was studied after graded depletion or enrichment of membrane cholesterol by incubation of the cells in phospholipid or phospholipid/cholesterol suspensions.
- 1. 1. The carrier-mediated transfer of L-lactate and of L-arabinose proved to be enhanced by cholesterol. In the case of L-lactate, a decrease in Km seems to be involved in this effect. In contrast, the self-exchange of SO42−, mediated by the inorganic anion-exchange system, and the simple diffusion of erythritol via the lipid phase of the membrane are inhibited by cholesterol.
- 2. 2. Reversibility of these two opposite effects of cholesterol was demonstrated by measurements on cells depleted again after cholesterol enrichment and enriched again after previous depletion.
- 3. 3. Certain phospholipids used for preparing the lipid dispersions that are required for cholesterol variation have effects on permeability of their own, due, for example, to traces of contaminants. A discrimination of such artifacts from the effects of cholesterol is only possible by demonstrating reversibility.
- 4. 4. The opposite effects of cholesterol on various facilitated transfer processes, which have a correlation in the opposite effects of other modifications of the membrane lipid phase (Deuticke, B., Grunze, M. and Haest, C.W.M. (1979) Alfred Benzon Symposium 14, Munksgaard, Copenhagen, in the press), are indicative of different types of lipid-protein interaction in the erythrocyte membrane.
