Interactions of Alkylphosphocholines with Model Membranes—The Langmuir Monolayer Study

Abstract: Alkylphosphocholines (APCs) belong to a class of synthetic antitumor lipids, which are new-generation anticancer agents. In contrast to traditional antitumor drugs, they do not attack the cell nucleus but, rather, the cellular membrane; however, their mechanism of action is not fully understood. This work compared the interactions of selected APCs [namely, hexadecylphosphocholine (miltefosine), octadecylphosphocholine and erucylphosphocholine] with the most important membrane lipids [cholesterol, 1,2-dipalmito… Show more

“…In this paper we have extended our study to mixtures with sphingolipids: sphingomyelin (SM) and ganglioside GM 1 . The isotherms for both sphingolipids [2224] as well as APCs [12] are known and our results are in a good agreement with the data already published. Namely, both investigated sphingolipids behave similarly in monolayers at the air/water interface (Figs.…”

“…Three antitumor phosphocholines (APCs), namely hexadecylphosphocholine (HePC), octadecylphosphocholine (OcPC) and erucylphosphocholine (ErPC) have already been studied alone as well as in mixtures with two main membrane lipids, i.e. cholesterol and phosphatidylcholines (DPPC and POPC) [12]. In this paper we have extended our study to mixtures with sphingolipids: sphingomyelin (SM) and ganglioside GM 1 .…”

“…On the basis of Langmuir monolayer technique, some steps in the mechanisms of physiological processes, especially those connected with the influence of hormones (Filek et al 2005; Gzyl et al 2004; Wnętrzak et al 2013), organic and non-organic ions (Gzyl-Malcher et al 2009, 2011; Rudolphi-Skórska et al 2014) have been interrelated. One of the important problems in plant physiology is to protect the cells against the mycotoxin accumulation (Diamond et al 2013).…”

“…In this context, the simplest way was to investigate drug-membrane interactions. Edelfosine [179], miltefosine [180] and erucylphosphocholine [181] formed stable monolayers and displayed strong attractive interactions for mixtures with cholesterol [182][183][184][185], interpreted in terms of immobilizing drug molecules in the membrane [182] by forming -surface complexes‖ of 1:1 stiochiometry. These sphingomyelin [190,191] were important in membrane activity of ATLs due to weak interactions and the tendency to phase separate.…”
