The bacterial outer membrane as a drug barrier.

The outer membranes of Gram-negative bacteria constitute a semi-permeable barrier, as indicated by the corresponding alterations in outer membrane permeability and in antibiotic susceptibility resulting from mutation or polycation action. Restricted outer membrane permeability works in synergy with co-determinant resistance mechanisms, such as the periplasmic enzyme beta-lactamase or active eff...

Mechanism of uptake of a cationic water-soluble pyridinium zinc phthalocyanine across the outer membrane of Escherichia coli.

Previous studies have shown that a cationic water-soluble pyridinium zinc phthalocyanine (PPC) is a powerful photosensitizer that is able to inactivate Escherichia coli. In the current work incubation of E. coli cells with PPC in the dark caused alterations in the outer membrane permeability barrier of the cells, rendering the bacteria much more sensitive to hydrophobic compounds, with little e...

Outer membrane permeability of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus mediates susceptibility to rat polymorphonuclear leukocyte granule contents.

Growth of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus on specific alkanes altered the outer membrane permeability of the organism, as indicated by a change in sensitivity to the antibiotic actinomycin D. As the carbon length of the alkane energy source decreased, outer membrane permeability and susceptibility to actinomycin D increased. Concomitant with the increase in outer membrane permeability, A. calcoacet...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane permeability: isolation of a porin protein F-deficient mutant.

A mutant of Pseudomonas aeruginosa severely deficient in outer membrane protein F levels was isolated by screening heavily mutagenized strains for membrane protein alterations on sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. To provide a basis for phenotypic comparison, three independent spontaneous revertants with normal protein F levels were isolated. Neither the protein F-defic...

Oxidative membrane damage and its involvement in gamma radiation-induced apoptotic cell death.

Background: Recent results have provided increasing evidence to support involvement of membrane damage in the mechanism of ionizing radiation induced killing of mammalian cells. These findings have stimulated renewed interest in evaluating the damage to membrane as a primary initiator in radiation-induced cell killing especially in apoptotic death. The present study was aimed to gain deeper ins...
