Intramolecular excimer formation of 1, 3-di(1-pyrenyl)propane (Py-3-Py) and fluorescence polarization of 1, 6-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-hexatriene (DPH) were used to investigate the effects of barbiturates on the fluidity of model membranes of phosphatidycholine (SPMVPC), phosphatidylserine (SPMVPS), and phosphatidylinositol (SPMVPI) fractions of synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV) isolated from bovine cerebral cortex. In a dose-dependent manner, barbiturates decreased the excimer to monomer fluorescence intensity ratio (I'/I) of Py-3-Py and increased the anisotropy(r), rotational relaxation time (P), limiting anisotropy $(r_infty)$, and order parameter (S) of DPH in SPMVPC, SPMVPS and SPMVPI. This indicates that barbiturates decreased both the lateral and rotational diffusion of the probes in SPMVPC, SPMVPS and SPMVPI. The relative potencies of barbiturates in ordering the membranes were in the order: pentobarbital > hexobarbital > amobarbital > phenobarbital. This order correlates well with the anesthetic potencies of barbiturates and the potencies for enhancement of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid-stimulated chloride uptake. Thus, it is strongly suggested that a close relationship might exist between the membrane ordering effects of barbiturates and the chloride fluxes across SPMV.

Fluorescence probes located in different membrane regions were used to evaluate the effects of chlorpromazine HCl on structural parameters (transbilayer lateral mobility, annular lipid fluidity, protein distribution, and lipid bilayer thickness) of synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMVs) isolated from bovine cerebral cortex. The experimental procedure was based on the selective quenching of 1,3-di(1-pyrenyl)propane (Py-3-Py) by trinitrophenyl groups, radiationless energy transfer from the tryptophan of membrane proteins to Py-3-Py, and energy transfer from Py-3-Py monomers to 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid (ANS). In this study, chlorpromazine HCl decreased the lateral mobility of Py-3-Py in a concentration dependent-manner, showed a greater ordering effect on the inner monolayer than on the outer monolayer, decreased annular lipid fluidity in a dose dependent-manner, and contracted the membrane lipid bilayer. Furthermore, the drug was found to have a clustering effect on membrane proteins.

The aim of this study was to provide a basis for studying the molecular mechanism of pharmacological action of chlorhexidine digluconate. Fluorescence polarization of n-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid was used to examine the effect of chlorhexidine digluconate on differential rotational mobility of different positions of the number of membrane bilayer phospholipid carbon atoms. The six membrane components differed with respect to 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 16-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (2-AS, 3-AS, 6-AS, 9-AS, 12-AS and 16-AP) probes, indicating different membrane fluidity. Chlorhexidine digluconate increased the rate of rotational mobility of hydrocarbon interior of the cultured Porphyromonas gingivalis outer membranes (OPG) in a dose-dependent manner, but decreased the mobility of surface region (membrane interface) of the OPG. Disordering or ordering effects of chlorhexidine digluconate on membrane lipids may be responsible for some, but not all of its bacteriostatic and bactericidal actions.

The purpose of this study was to provide a basis for studying the molecular mechanism of pharmacological action of chlorhexidine digluconate. Large unilamellar vesicles (OPGTL) were prepared with total lipids extracted from cultured Porphyromonas gingivalis outer membranes (OPG). The anthroyloxy probes were located at a graded series of depths inside a membrane, depending on its substitution position (n) in the aliphatic chain. Fluorescence polarization of n-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid was used to examine effects of chlorhexidine digluconate on differential rotational mobility, while changing the probes' substitution position (n) in the membrane phospholipids aliphatic chain. Magnitude of the rotational mobility of the intact six membrane components differed depending on the substitution position in the descending order of 16-(9-anthroyloxy)palmitic acid (16-AP), 12, 9, 6, 3 and 2-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (12-AS, 9-AS, 6-AS, 3-AS and 2-AS). Chlorhexidine digluconate increased in a dose-dependent manner the rate of rotational mobility of hydrocarbon interior of the OPGTL prepared with total lipids extracted from cultured OPG, but decreased the mobility of membrane interface of the OPGTL. Disordering or ordering effects of chlorhexidine digluconate on membrane lipids may be responsible for some, but not all of its bacteriostatic and bactericidal actions.

Using fluorescence polarization of 12-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (12-AS) and 2-(9-anthroyloxy)stearic acid (2-AS), we evaluated the differential effects of local anesthetics on differential rotational rate between the surface (in carbon number 2 and its surroundings including the head group) and the hydrocarbon interior (in carbon number 12 and its surroundings) of the outer monolayer of the total lipid fraction liposome extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles. The anisotropy (r) values for the hydrocarbon interior and the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer were $0.078{\pm}0.001$ and $0.114{\pm}0.001,$ respectively. This means that the rate of rotational mobility in the hydrocarbon interior is faster than that of the surface region. In a dose-dependent manner, the local anesthetics decreased the anisotropy of 12-AS in the hydrocarbon interior of the liposome outer monolayer but increased the anisotropy of 2-AS in the surface region of the monolayer. These results indicate that local anesthetics have significant disordering effects on the hydrocarbon interior but have significant ordering effects on the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer.

치아우식의 주원인균인 Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans)는 산 생성 뿐 아니라 산에 대한 탁월한 저항성을 나타낸다. 본 연구에서는 S. mutans가 pH stress에 노출될 때 형질막 유동성, F-ATPase 활성과 발현 및 양성자 투과성 변화와 그 상관관계를 규명하였다. S. mutans로부터 형질막을 분리한 후 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene을 사용하여 pH stress가 형질막 유동성 변화에 미치는 영향을 측정하였다. pH 4.8과 pH 8.8에서 배양한 S. mutans는 pH 6.8에서 배양한 S. mutans에 비하여 형질막 유동성이 감소되었다. F-ATPase 활성과 발현은 pH 4.8에서 가장 높았고, pH 8.8에서 가장 낮았다. 양성자 투과성은 pH 4.8과 pH 8.8에서 모두 감소되었으며, 특히 pH 4.8에서의 감소가 컸다. F-ATPase 활성만으로 양성자 투과성이 결정된다면 pH 8.8에서 가장 높아야 하나 pH 6.8보다 감소하는 것은 형질막 유동성 감소에 기인된 양성자 세포내 유입 감소와 관련된 것으로 추정한다. 또한 pH 4.8에서 양성자 투과성이 아주 낮은 것은 높은 F-ATPase 활성에 의한 양성자 세포외 유출 증가 뿐 아니라 형질막 유동성 감소에 의한 양성자 세포내 유입 감소에 기인된 것으로 추정한다. 따라서 pH stress에 의한 형질막 유동성 감소는 S. mutans가 세포내 pH 를 유지하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 생각되며 에탄올을 포함하여 비특이적으로 세포막 유동성을 증가시키는 약물들은 항우식제에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 추정한다.

한국산 2년생 소의 신선한 대뇌피질로 부터 synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV)를 분리한 후 이 SPMV로 부터 추출한 총지질 (SPMVTL) 및 총인지질 (SPMVPL)로서 인공세포막을 제제하였다. SPMVTL 및 SPMVPL의 outer monolayer에 trinitrophenyl groups로 공유결합시킴으로써 형광 probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH)의 outer monolayer 형광을 선택적으로 소광케한 후 SPMVTL 및 SPMVPL의 inner와 outer monolayer 사이의 비대칭적 유동성 존재 유무를 확인하였던 바 inner monolayer에 비하여 outer monolayer가 유동성이 크다는 것을 확인하였으며 SPMVTL에 비하여 SPMVPL의 유동성이 높았다. 뿐만 아니라 barbiturates는 SPMVTL의 유동성에 대하여는 유의성이 있을 만큼의 증감 효과를 나타내지 않았고 SPMVPL의 유동성은 감소시키되 주로 outer monolayer의 유동성을 감소시킨다는 것을 확인하였으며 barbiturates 종류에 따른 SPMVPL의 총유동성 감소의 크기는 pentobarbital > hexobarbital > amobarbital > phenobarbital의 순이었다.

Using fluorescence probes, 2-(9-anthroyloxy) stearic acid (2- AS) and 12-(9-anthroyloxy) stearic acid (12-AS), we determined the differential effects of local anesthetics (tetracaine-HCI, bupivacaine-HCI, lidocaine-HCI, prilocaine-HCI and procaine-HCI) on the differential rotational rate between the surface (in carbon number 2 and its surroundings including the head group) and the hydrocarbon interior (in carbon number 12 and its surroundings) of the outer monolayer of the total phospholipid fraction liposome that is extracted from synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles. The anisotropy (r) values for the hydrocarbon interior and the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer were$0.051{\pm}0.001$ and $0.096{\pm}0.001,$ respectively. This means that the rate of rotational mobility in the hydrocarbon interior is faster than that of the surface region. Local anesthetics in a dosedependent manner decreased the anisotropy of 12-AS in the hydrocarbon interior of the liposome outer monolayer, but increased the anisotropy of 2-AS in the surface region of the monolayer. These results indicate that local anesthetics have significant disordering effects on the hydrocarbon interior, but have significant ordering effects on the surface region of the liposome outer monolayer.
