Abstract
The clinical benefits of using exogenous pulmonary surfactant (EPS) as a carrier of budesonide (BUD), a non-halogenated corticosteroid with a broad anti-inflammatory effect, have been established. Using various experimental techniques (differential scanning calorimetry DSC, small- and wide- angle X-ray scattering SAXS/WAXS, small- angle neutron scattering SANS, fluorescence spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering DLS, and zeta potential), we investigated the effect of BUD on the thermodynamics and structure of the clinically used EPS, Curosurf®. We show that BUD facilitates the Curosurf® phase transition from the gel to the fluid state, resulting in a decrease in the temperature of the main phase transition (Tm) and enthalpy (ΔH). The morphology of the Curosurf® dispersion is maintained for BUD < 10 wt% of the Curosurf® mass; BUD slightly increases the repeat distance d of the fluid lamellar phase in multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) resulting from the thickening of the lipid bilayer. The bilayer thickening (~0.23 nm) was derived from SANS data. The presence of ~2 mmol/L of Ca2+ maintains the effect and structure of the MLVs. The changes in the lateral pressure of the Curosurf® bilayer revealed that the intercalated BUD between the acyl chains of the surfactant's lipid molecules resides deeper in the hydrophobic region when its content exceeds ~6 wt%. Our studies support the concept of a combined therapy utilising budesonide-enriched Curosurf®.

Abstract
Multicomponent lipid bilayers are used as models for searching the origin of spatial heterogeneities in biomembranes called lipid rafts, implying the coexistence of domains of different phases and compositions within the lipid bilayer. The spatial organization of multicomponent lipid bilayers on a scale of a hundred nanometers remains unknown. Brillouin spectroscopy providing information about the acoustic phonons with the wavelength of several hundred nanometers has an unexplored potential for this problem. Here, we applied Brillouin spectroscopy for three binary bilayers composed of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC), 1,2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), and cholesterol. The Brillouin experiment for the oriented planar multibilayers was realized for two scattering geometries involving phonons for the lateral and normal directions of the propagation. The DPPC-DOPC mixtures known for the coexistence of the solid-ordered and liquid-disordered phases had bimodal Brillouin peaks, revealing the phase domains with sizes more than a hundred nanometers. Analysis of the Brillouin data for the binary mixtures concluded that the lateral phonons are preferable for testing the lateral homogeneity of the bilayers, while the phonons spreading across the bilayers are sensitive to the layered packing at the mesoscopic scale.

Abstract
The size, dispersibility, and fluidity of DPPC (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), POPC (1-palmitoy-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine), and DOPC (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) liposomes doped with β-sitosteryl sulfate (PSO4) were comparatively studied. In all three types of liposomes, PSO4 reduced sizes and enhanced the negative values of the ζ-potential. However, the effect on sizes quantitatively differed in the three cases in a manner dependent on their phase behaviors. PSO4 rigidified each type of membrane in its liquid crystalline phase and fluidized the gel phase. It enhanced the glucose trapping efficiency (TE) of both DPPC and DOPC liposomes. The TE of DPPC first increased with the increasing concentration of PSO4, then decreased gradually. On the other hand, in the case of DOPC, the TE increased significantly upon addition of PSO4, then remained nearly constant. Though the exact dependence of TE on the PSO4 concentration differed in the two cases, its effect, in each case, was more than the effect of β-sitosterol (POH). The ability of PSO4 for reducing the size and enhancing dispersibility and TE of liposomes can be useful for preparing cosmetics and pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract
The phase behaviors of systems containing saturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) and plant steroids can be important for designing new alternative delivery methods. In our previous studies, we found that even a small amount of β-sitosteryl sulfate (PSO4) significantly affects the phase behavior, hydration properties, and liposomal properties of pure saturated phosphatidylcholines [Kafle, A.; Colloids Surf., B 2018, 161, 59-66; Kafle, A.; J. Oleo Sci. 2018, 67 (12), 1511-1519]. In the current paper, we are reporting the phase behavior of a more complex system consisting of hydrogenated soy lecithin (HLC), which is useful as a carrier in drug delivery systems or in cosmetics, and PSO4. HLC, which is composed of phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidic acid (PA), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), demonstrated a versatile phase behavior. The PC component of HLC was found to separate from the PE and PA components as a result of nonideal mixing. At room temperature, these two domains represented two distinct gel phases denoted Lβ1 and Lβ2. The Lβ1 phase selectively underwent transition into the liquid crystalline phase (Lα) at a lower temperature than Lβ2. Upon addition of PSO4, at room temperature, the PC fraction gradually converted into the liquid-ordered (Lo) phase, while the (PE + PA) fraction remained unaffected. When heated above 60 °C, the whole material converted into the liquid crystalline phase. The observed fluidizing effect of PSO4 on HLC can find applications in preparing vehicles for moisture or drugs in cosmetic and pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract
Ram sperm are particularly sensitive to freeze-thawing mainly due to their lipid composition, limiting their use in artificial insemination programs. We evaluated the extent of cholesterol and desmosterol incorporation into ram sperm through incubation with increasing concentrations of methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD)-sterol complexes, and its effect on membrane biophysical properties, membrane lateral organization and cryopreservation outcome. Sterols were effectively incorporated into the sperm membrane at 10 and 25 mM MβCD-sterols, similarly increasing membrane lipid order at physiological temperature and during temperature decrease. Differential ordering effect of sterols in ternary-mixture model membranes revealed a reduced tendency of desmosterol of segregating into ordered domains. Live cell imaging of fluorescent cholesterol showed sterol incorporation and evidenced the presence of sperm sub-populations compatible with different sterol contents and a high concentration of sterol rich-ordered domains mainly at the acrosome plasma membrane. Lateral organization of the plasma membrane, assessed by identification of GM1-related rafts, was preserved after sterol incorporation except when high levels of sterols (25 mM MβCD-desmosterol) were incorporated. Ram sperm incubation with 10 mM MβCD-sterols prior to cryopreservation in a cholesterol-free extender improved sperm quality parameters after cooling and freezing. While treatment with 10 mM MβCD-cholesterol increased sperm motility, membrane integrity and tolerance to osmotic stress after thawing, incorporation of desmosterol increased the ability of ram sperm to overcome osmotic stress. Our research provides evidence on the effective incorporation and biophysical behavior of cholesterol and desmosterol in ram sperm membranes and on their consequences in improving functional parameters of sperm after temperature decrease and freezing.

A comparative differential scanning calorimetry study of the effects of cholesterol and various oxysterols on the thermotropic phase behavior of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayer membranes. Chem Phys Lipids 2015; 195:21-33. [PMID: 26620814 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemphyslip.2015.11.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2015] [Revised: 11/12/2015] [Accepted: 11/14/2015] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
We have carried out a comparative differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) study of the effects of cholesterol (C) and the eight most physiologically relevant oxysterols on the thermotropic phase behavior of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer membranes. The structures of these oxysterols differ from that of C by the presence of additional hydroxyl, keto or epoxy groups on the steroid ring system or by the presence of a hydroxyl group in the alkyl side chain. In general, the progressive incorporation of these oxysterols reduces the temperature, cooperativity and enthalpy of the pretransition of DPPC to a greater extent than C, indicating that their presence thermally destabilizes and disorders the gel states of DPPC bilayers to a greater extent than C. Similarly, the incorporation of these oxysterols either increases the temperature of the broad component of the main phase transition to a smaller extent than C or actually decreases it. Again, this indicates that the presence of these compounds is less effective at thermally stabilizing and ordering the sterol-rich domains of DPPC bilayers than is C itself. Moreover, the incorporation of these oxysterols decrease the cooperativity and enthalpy of the main phase transition of DPPC to a smaller extent than C, indicating that they are somewhat less miscible in fluid DPPC bilayers than is C. Particularly notable in this regard is 25-hydroxycholesterol, which exhibits a markedly reduced miscibility in both gel and fluid DPPC bilayers compared to C itself. In general, the effectiveness of these oxysterols in stabilizing and ordering DPPC bilayers decreases as their rate of interbilayer exchange and the polarity of the oxysterol increases. We close by providing a tentative molecular explanation for the results of our DSC studies and of those of previous biophysical studies of the effects of various oxysterol on lipid bilayer model membranes.
