The Ion Permeability Induced in Thin Lipid Membranes by the Polyene Antibiotics Nystatin and Amphotericin B
Characteristics of nystatin and amphotericin B action on thin (<100 A) lipid membranes are: (a) micromolar amounts increase membrane conductance from 10(-8) to over 10(-2) Omega(-1) cm(-2); (b) such membranes are (non-ideally) anion selective and discriminate among anions on the basis of size; (c) membrane sterol is required for action; (d) antibiotic presence on both sides of membrane strongly...
متن کاملThe Water and Nonelectrolyte Permeability Induced in Thin Lipid Membranes by the Polyene Antibiotics Nystatin and Amphotericin B
Nystatin and amphotericin B increase the permeability of thin (<100 A) lipid membranes to ions, water, and nonelectrolytes. Water and nonelectrolyte permeability increase linearly with membrane conductance (i.e., ion permeability). In the unmodified membrane, the osmotic permeability coefficient, P(f), is equal to the tagged water permeability coefficient, (P(d))(w); in the nystatin- or amphote...
متن کاملThe Effect of Amphotericin B on the Water and Nonelectrolyte Permeability of Thin Lipid Membranes
This paper reports the effects of amphotericin B, a polyene antibiotic, on the water and nonelectrolyte permeability of optically black, thin lipid membranes formed from sheep red blood cell lipids dissolved in decane. The permeability coefficients for the diffusion of water and nonelectrolytes (P(DDi)) were estimated from unidirectional tracer fluxes when net water flow (J(w)) was zero. Altern...
متن کاملAn effect of antibiotic amphotericin B on ion transport across model lipid membranes and tonoplast membranes.
A pH sensitive fluorescence probe piranine trisulfonate, entrapped inside small unilamellar liposomes formed with egg yolk phosphatidylcholine, was applied to investigate effect of polyene antibiotic amphotericin B (AmB) on proton transport across lipid membranes. Time dependencies of fluorescence-monitored pH changes inside lipid vesicles, upon sudden acidification of the liposome suspension, ...
متن کاملNew N-alkyl derivatives of amphotericin B. Synthesis and biological properties.
Amphotericin B (AMB), Fig. 1 , the polyene macrolide antifungal antibiotic of high clinical importance, is the drug of choice for the treatment of deep-seated disseminated mycotic infections in humans1'2). However, the therapy is associated with toxic side effects, the most serious being the nephrotoxicity3). These undesirable effects are consequences of the poor selectivity of AMBinteraction w...
