Lamellar to hexagonal phase transition in DOPE-DOPC- Alkanol system: X-ray diffraction study
Alkane-1-ols (abbreviation CnOH, n is the number of carbons in alkyl chain) are known as general anesthetics that do not obey the Meyer-Overton rule [1]. Their anesthetic potency increases up to C11OH and then decreases, compounds with n 13 are nonanesthetic, although the molar partition coefficient Kp between the lipid bilayers and aqueous phase increases exponentially in the whole region [2]....
متن کاملHydrophobic nanoparticles promote lamellar to inverted hexagonal transition in phospholipid mesophases.
This study focuses on how the mesophase transition behaviour of the phospholipid dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) is altered by the presence of 10 nm hydrophobic and 14 nm hydrophilic silica nanoparticles (NPs) at different concentrations. The lamellar to inverted hexagonal phase transition (Lα-HII) of phospholipids is energetically analogous to the membrane fusion process, therefore un...
متن کاملLateral diffusion study of excimer-forming lipids in lamellar to inverted hexagonal phase transition of unsaturated phosphatidylethanolamine.
Using multi-frequency cross-correlation fluorometry, the monomer fluorescence lifetime of 1-palmitoyl-2-[10-(1-pyrenyl)decanoyl)phosphatidylcholine (Py-PC) was employed to determine the lateral diffusion constant (DT) of dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) in both the lamellar (L alpha) and the inverted hexagonal (HII) phases. The values of DT increased with temperature in both phases. Howe...
متن کاملCdS MINERALIZATION OF HEXAGONAL, LAMELLAR, AND CUBIC LYOTROPIC LIQUID CRYSTALS
Growth of CdS was studied in three different liquid crystalline phases demonstrating the versatility of liquid crystal templating of inorganic solids. Semiconductor growth in a hexagonal liquid crystal yielded a nanostructure with hexagonal symmetry, a lamellar liquid crystal yielded a lamellar nanostructure, and a cubic liquid crystal (consisting of spherical micelles) yielded a hollow, spheri...
متن کاملEffect of acyl chain composition on salt-induced lamellar to inverted hexagonal phase transitions in cardiolipin.
Salt-induced fluid lamellar (L alpha) to inverted hexagonal (HII) phase transitions have been studied in diphosphatidylglycerols (cardiolipins) with different acyl chain compositions, using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Cardiolipins with four myristoyl chains, tetramyristoyl cardiolipin (TMCL), and with four oleoyl chains, tetraoleoyl cardiolipin (TOCL), were synthesized ch...
