Interactions of the anticancer drug tamoxifen with lipid membranes.
Interactions of the hydrophobic anticancer drug tamoxifen (TAM) with lipid model membranes were studied using calcein-encapsulated vesicle leakage, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) based force spectroscopy, and all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The addition of TAM enhances...
متن کاملAlzheimer Aβ peptide interactions with lipid membranes
Fibrillar aggregates of misfolded amyloid proteins are involved in a variety of diseases such as Alzheimer disease (AD), type 2 diabetes, Parkinson, Huntington and prion-related diseases. In the case of AD amyloid β (Aβ) peptides, the toxicity of amyloid oligomers and larger fibrillar aggregates is related to perturbing the biological function of the adjacent cellular membrane. We used atomisti...
متن کاملLipid-protein interactions in membranes.
The interactions of lipids with integral and peripheral proteins can be studied in reconstituted and natural membranes using spin label electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. The ESR spectra reveal a reduction in mobility of the spin-labelled lipid species, and in certain cases evidence is obtained for a partial penetration of the peripheral proteins into the membrane. The latter may be re...
متن کاملAmphiphilic drug interactions with model cellular membranes are influenced by lipid chain-melting temperature
Small-molecule amphiphilic species such as many drug molecules frequently exhibit low-to-negligible aqueous solubility, and generally have no identified transport proteins assisting their distribution, yet are able to rapidly penetrate significant distances into patient tissue and even cross the blood-brain barrier. Previous work has identified a mechanism of translocation driven by acid-cataly...
متن کاملLipid-sterol interactions in liposomes and membranes.
Sterols are main constituents of many membranes. Cholesterol is the most abundant sterol in membranes of higher organisms. Many studies have been undertaken to try to understand the function of cholesterol, in which the interaction between cholesterol and various phosphatidylcholines were investigated in monolayers and liposomes (Phillips, 1972). The physicochemical state of the lipids determin...
