Phase separation of phospholipid multilayers incorporated with cell penetrating peptides

Abstract: We used X-ray reflectivity to investigate the structures of phospholipid multilayers with transcription-activating-factor-derived peptide ͑TDP͒ as a function of the membrane charge density. Mixed phospholipid multilayers of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine ͑DPPC͒ and 1,2-dipalmitoyl -sn-glycero-3-phosphoserine ͑DPPS͒ with different mixing ratios ͑C:S͒ were used to elucidate the various charge densities in a plasma membrane. We fixed the peptide/lipid molar ratio ͑P/L͒ and varied the DPPC/DPPS molar … Show more

“…3, the friction coefficients measured for a partial and completely depleted cartilage samples (curve 2) are compared with the results obtained for natural joints (curve 3) with healthy and naturally degenerated articular surfaces. 5,35,51,52 We interpret the increased friction coefficient values due to the number of bilayers available in SAL. 27,30,36 Both the friction and wettability show very similar behavior as the SAL thickness is varied.…”

“…44,45 A layer of hydrated water strongly binds to the negatively charge cartilage surface, and when in contact with synovial fluid components (charged biomacromolecules, PL lamellar aggregates, and liposomes), this reduces the friction between cartilage surfaces.

“…The two different types of domain that form in a binary amphiphile mixture may be in the liquid and gel phases respectively [9][10][11][12], or may both be in the liquid phase [12][13][14][15], albeit with different degrees of internal order in the amphiphile chains [4,12]. Domain formation can be controlled by a variety of factors, including the difference in chain length between the two amphiphile species [4,9,16,17], the lateral tension in the bilayer [11,18] and the presence of a third species, such as a protein or peptide [1,[19][20][21][22], cholesterol [4,10,12,20],…”
