Abstract
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is a central technique in investigating drug - membrane interactions, a critical component of pharmaceutical research. DSC measures the heat difference between a sample of interest and a reference as a function of temperature or time, contributing essential knowledge on the thermally induced phase changes in lipid membranes and how these changes are affected by incorporating pharmacological substances. The manuscript discusses the use of phospholipid bilayers, which can form structures like unilamellar and multilamellar vesicles, providing a simplified yet representative membrane model to investigate the complex dynamics of how drugs interact with and penetrate cellular barriers. The manuscript consolidates data from various studies, providing a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying drug - membrane interactions, the determinants that influence these interactions, and the crucial role of DSC in elucidating these components. It further explores the interactions of specific classes of drugs with phospholipid membranes, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, anticancer agents, natural products with antioxidant properties, and Alzheimer's disease therapeutics. The manuscript underscores the critical importance of DSC in this field and the need for continued research to improve our understanding of these interactions, acting as a valuable resource for researchers.

Geno-cytotoxicity and congenital malformations produced by relevant environmental concentrations of aluminum, diclofenac and their mixture on Cyprinus carpio. An interactions study. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2021; 82:103555. [PMID: 33309951 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2020.103555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2020] [Revised: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 11/23/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Several studies highlight the presence of aluminum and diclofenac in water bodies around the world and their ability to induce oxidative stress and a negative effect on biomolecules in several aquatic species. However, studies evaluating the toxic effect of mixtures of these contaminants are scarce. The objective of this work was to determine the genotoxic, cytotoxic and embryotoxic effect of the mixture of aluminum and diclofenac at environmentally relevant concentrations on Cyprinus carpio. Juveniles of Cyprinus carpio were exposed to 0.31 μg L-1 of diclofenac, 24.45 mg L-1 of aluminum, and a mixture of both contaminants at the same concentrations for 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. After the exposure time the liver, gills and blood were extracted and the following biomarkers were evaluated: micronucleus frequency, comet assay, caspase activity and TUNEL test. On the other hand, Cyprinus carpio embryos were exposed to diclofenac (0.31 μg L-1), aluminum (0.06 mg L-1) and their mixture at the same concentrations and exposure time. Microscopic observation was performed to evaluate embryonic development at 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. Diclofenac (0.31 μg L-1) induces significant increases in micronucleus frequency with respect to control (p < 0.05), in all tissues. Aluminum (24.45 mg L-1) significantly increases DNA damage index in liver and blood cells with respect to control (p < 0.05). All treatments increase caspases activity in all tissues with respect to control (p < 0.05). Diclofenac increases the percentage of TUNEL-positive cells in liver and blood; while aluminum and the mixture increases it significantly in gills and blood with respect to the control (p < 0.05). The mixture significantly delays embryonic development, while aluminum and the mixture significantly increase teratogenic index with respect to control (p < 0.05). In conclusion, exposure to environmental concentrations of aluminium, diclofenac and their mixture induces genotoxic damage, cell death by apoptosis and negative effects on the development of Cyprinus carpio and the toxic response is modified by the interaction of the xenobiotics.

Unraveling the Role of Drug-Lipid Interactions in NSAIDs-Induced Cardiotoxicity. MEMBRANES 2020; 11:membranes11010024. [PMID: 33383697 PMCID: PMC7824678 DOI: 10.3390/membranes11010024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2020] [Revised: 12/19/2020] [Accepted: 12/22/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) toxicity is nowadays recognized as a class effect of non-aspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). However, their mechanisms of cardiotoxicity are not yet well understood, since different compounds with similar action mechanisms exhibit distinct cardiotoxicity. For instance, diclofenac (DIC) is among the most cardiotoxic compounds, while naproxen (NAP) is associated with low CV risk. In this sense, this study aimed to unravel the role of drug-lipid interactions in NSAIDs-induced cardiotoxicity. For that, DIC and NAP interactions with lipid bilayers as model systems of cell and mitochondrial membranes were characterized by derivative spectrophotometry, fluorometric leakage assays, and synchrotron X-ray scattering. Both DIC and NAP were found to have the ability to permeabilize the membrane models, as well as to alter the bilayers’ structure. The NSAIDs-induced modifications were dependent on the lipid composition of the membrane model, the three-dimensional structure of the drug, as well as the drug:lipid molar ratio tested. Altogether, this work supports the hypothesis that NSAIDs-lipid interactions, in particular at the mitochondrial level, may be another key step among the mechanisms underlying NSAIDs-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
The fabrication, characterization of butyl methyl imidazolium silica sulfate [BMIm]SS as a novel nano hybrid catalyst and its application in synthesis of new ibuprofen (IBP) 1,2-diol mono esters were described. [BMIm]SS catalyzed the reaction of IBP with epoxides to afford the new IBP 1,2-diol mono esters in good to excellent yields. The products were tested in vivo for the analgesic properties on female mice using formalin test. The test results revealed that most compounds, in particular compounds 1h, 1k and 1o displayed potent analgesic activity compare to IBP as a reference drug. No mortality was observed due to the toxicity of the synthesized compounds. The docking analysis was conducted that confirmed the strong binding affinity of active compounds to active site of murine cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzyme compare to IBP. The in silico pharmacokinetic profile, drug likeness and toxicity predictions were carried out for all compounds which determined that 1h can be suggested as an appropriate future drug candidate.

Abstract
Erythrocytes (RBCs) represent the main cell component in circulation and recently have become a topic of intensive scientific interest. The relevance of erythrocytes as a model for cytotoxicity screening of xenobiotics is under the spotlight of this review. Erythrocytes constitute a fundamental cellular model to study potential interactions with blood components of manifold novel polymer or biomaterials. Morphological changes, subsequent disruption of RBC membrane integrity, and hemolysis could be used to determine the cytotoxicity of various compounds. Erythrocytes undergo a programmed death (eryptosis) which could serve as a good model for evaluating certain mechanisms which correspond to apoptosis taking place in nucleated cells. Importantly, erythrocytes can be successfully used as a valuable cellular model in examination of oxidative stress generated by certain diseases or multiple xenobiotics since red cells are subjected to permanent oxidative stress. Additionally, the antioxidant capacity of erythrocytes, and the activity of anti-oxidative enzymes could reflect reactive oxygen species (ROS) generating properties of various substances and allow to determine their effects on tissues. The last part of this review presents the latest findings on the possible application of RBCs as drug delivery systems (DDS). In conclusion, all these findings make erythrocytes highly valuable cells for in vitro biocompatibility assessment, cytotoxicity screening of a wide variety of substances as well as drug delivery.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 738:140096. [PMID: 32806372 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2020.140096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2020] [Revised: 06/04/2020] [Accepted: 06/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
According to ISO 17402:2008 more knowledge is needed on processes controlling bioavailability of organic species so as to close the still existing gap between chemical measurements and biological effects. The bioavailability concept encompasses the investigation of the degree of penetration of target species across biological membranes. In addition, REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of Chemicals) guidelines promote the use of in-vitro methods against conventional ecotoxicological tests because of the ethical controversy of in-vivo tests. This work is aimed at filling the gap by proposing a multidisciplinary approach based on high-resolution and low-resolution empirical techniques, and theoretical quantum mechanics for the in-vitro investigation of the bioavailability and membranotropic effects of organic emerging contaminants, including bioaccumulation, via passive diffusion across lipid bilayers. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes are selected as biomembrane surrogates, and contaminant effects are explored by (i) fluorescence anisotropy and generalized polarization assays using membrane fluorescence probes (laurdan and prodan) and UV-Vis spectroscopy, (ii) 1H NMR measurements to ascertain supramolecular interactions with PC and (iii) molecular dynamics simulations. In particular, un-regulated model compounds with distinct physico-chemical properties that are representative of three different classes of emerging contaminants in environmental compartments are chosen for validation of the holistic approach: (i) diclofenac as a model of anti-inflammatory drug; (ii) triclosan as an anti-microbial agent; and (iii) bisphenol A as a plastic-borne compound, and compared with chlorpyrifos as a legacy insecticide. Laurdan anisotropic measurements are in good agreement with 1H NMR data and both approaches pinpoint that triclosan and chlorpyrifos are highly bioaccumulative in membranes. Molecular dynamic studies indicate that the lateral diffusion of the lipid bilayer is much lower with the incorporation of either triclosan or chlorpyrifos into the bilayer. The theoretical simulations also allowed estimating absolute bioavailability data under passive diffusion (<0.1%, 63%, 73% and 89% for diclofenac, bisphenol A, triclosan and chlorpyrifos, respectively) given as the percentage of time that a given species is located in the region of the fatty acyl chains. Our findings indicate that PC-based liposome assays serve as a fast and cost-effective in-vitro approach, notwithstanding its low resolution features, for environmental bioavailability studies of emerging contaminants for which insufficient or inconsistent ecotoxicological data are identified in the literature.

Abstract
Cinacalcet (CT) is an important drug for the treatment hyperparathyroidism. Only few studies havereported thepotential interaction between CT and other potentially coadministered drugs. In this study, the potential of invitro interaction between CT and DF sodium (DF-Na) was investigated. An ion pair salt of CT with DF was obtained by mixing the two compounds in solution; the product was fully characterized by HPLC analysis, UV, FTIR, NMR spectroscopy in addition to DSC. The solubility and partition coefficients were found to significantly decrease and increase, respectively, for the obtained ion pair salt in comparison to the parent compounds. Dissolution studies in phosphate buffer pH 6.8 revealed a significant decrease in the dissolution of an already poorly water soluble drug (decrease to ~20% of the original). Permeation studies, through Caco-2 cells monolayer, revealed a significant decrease in permeation of CT when coexisted with DF (almost to half). Apparent permeability coefficient (Papp) decreased from 3.6 × 10-6 to 1.8 × 10-6 cm/s. Interestingly, a structure for the formed CT-DF salt that could explain the above findings (increase in lipophilicity), could be proposed based on structural modelling, molecular dynamic simulations and NMR proton chemical shifts analysis.

Abstract
The inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a frequently used therapeutic option to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD). By decreasing the levels of acetylcholine degradation in the synaptic space, some cognitive functions of patients suffering from this disease are significantly improved. Rivastigmine is one of the most widely used AChE inhibitors. The objective of this work was to determine the effects of this drug on human erythrocytes, which have a type of AChE in the cell membrane. To that end, human erythrocytes and molecular models of its membrane constituted by dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE) were used. They correspond to classes of phospholipids present in the outer and inner monolayers of the human erythrocyte membrane, respectively. The experimental results obtained by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) indicated that rivastigmine molecules were able to interact with both phospholipids. Fluorescence spectroscopy results showed that rivastigmine produce a slight change in the acyl chain packing order and a weak displacement of the water molecules of the hydrophobic-hydrophilic membrane interface. On the other hand, observations by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that the drug changed the normal biconcave shape of erythrocytes in stomatocytes (cup-shaped cells) and echinocytes (speculated shaped).

Abstract
Many drugs have intracellular or membrane-associated targets, thus understanding their interaction with the cell membrane is of value in drug development. Cell-free tools used to predict membrane interactions should replicate the molecular organization of the membrane. Microcavity array-supported lipid bilayer (MSLB) platforms are versatile biophysical models of the cell membrane that combine liposome-like membrane fluidity with stability and addressability. We used an MSLB herein to interrogate drug-membrane interactions across seven drugs from different classes, including nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories: ibuprofen (Ibu) and diclofenac (Dic); antibiotics: rifampicin (Rif), levofloxacin (Levo), and pefloxacin (Pef); and bisphosphonates: alendronate (Ale) and clodronate (Clo). Fluorescence lifetime correlation spectroscopy (FLCS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to evaluate the impact of drug on 1,2-dioleyl- sn-glycerophosphocholine and binary bilayers over physiologically relevant drug concentrations. Although FLCS data revealed Ibu, Levo, Pef, Ale, and Clo had no impact on lipid lateral mobility, EIS, which is more sensitive to membrane structural change, indicated modest but significant decreases to membrane resistivity consistent with adsorption but weak penetration of drugs at the membrane. Ale and Clo, evaluated at pH 5.25, did not impact the impedance of the membrane except at concentrations exceeding 4 mM. Conversely, Dic and Rif dramatically altered bilayer fluidity, suggesting their translocation through the bilayer, and EIS data showed that resistivity of the membrane decreased substantially with increasing drug concentration. Capacitance changes to the bilayer in most cases were insignificant. Using a Langmuir-Freundlich model to fit the EIS data, we propose Rsat as an empirical value that reflects permeation. Overall, the data indicate that Ibu, Levo, and Pef adsorb at the interface of the lipid membrane but Dic and Rif interact strongly, permeating the membrane core modifying the water/ion permeability of the bilayer structure. These observations are discussed in the context of previously reported data on drug permeability and log P.

Abstract
Donepezil is used to treat symptomatically the Alzheimer's disease (AD). This drug is a specific inhibitor of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), whose main physiological function is to hydrolyze the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. The main objective of this work was to study the effect of donepezil on human erythrocytes as AChE is present in its membrane. For this purpose, human erythrocytes and molecular model of its membrane built-up of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE) were used. The latter correspond to classes of phospholipids present in the outer and inner monolayers of the human erythrocyte membrane, respectively. Our experimental evidences obtained from X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis indicated that donepezil was capable of interacting with both phospholipids. Fluorescence spectroscopy results showed a moderate increase in the fluidity of the hydrophobic tails of DMPC and isolated unsealed human erythrocyte membranes (IUM). On the other hand, results by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical defocusing microscopy (DM) showed that the drug changed the normal biconcave shape of the erythrocytes inducing the formation of stomatocytes (cup-shaped cells). This effect was explained by the incorporation of donepezil molecules into the erythrocyte membrane and interactions with AChE.

A Molecular Biophysical Approach to Diclofenac Topical Gastrointestinal Damage. Int J Mol Sci 2018; 19:ijms19113411. [PMID: 30384433 PMCID: PMC6275047 DOI: 10.3390/ijms19113411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2018] [Revised: 10/23/2018] [Accepted: 10/26/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Diclofenac (DCF), the most widely consumed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) worldwide, is associated with adverse typical effects, including gastrointestinal (GI) complications. The present study aims to better understand the topical toxicity induced by DCF using membrane models that mimic the physiological, biophysical, and chemical environments of GI mucosa segments. For this purpose, phospholipidic model systems that mimic the GI protective lining and lipid models of the inner mitochondrial membrane were used together with a wide set of techniques: derivative spectrophotometry to evaluate drug distribution at the membrane; steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence to predict drug location at the membrane; fluorescence anisotropy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and calcein leakage studies to evaluate the drug-induced disturbance on membrane microviscosity and permeability; and small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering studies (SAXS and WAXS, respectively), to evaluate the effects of DCF at the membrane structure. Results demonstrated that DCF interacts chemically with the phospholipids of the GI protective barrier in a pH-dependent manner and confirmed the DCF location at the lipid headgroup region, as well as DCF’s higher distribution at mitochondrial membrane contact points where the impairment of biophysical properties is consistent with the uncoupling effects reported for this drug.

Abstract
The solubility-permeability relationship of active pharmaceutical ingredients determines the efficacy of their usage. Diclofenac (DCL), which is a widely used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is characterized by extremely good membrane permeability, but low water solubility limiting drug effectiveness. The present research focuses on the fundamental explanation of this limitation using the combination of ab initio and classical molecular dynamics simulations of different ionic forms of DCL in water, namely, ionized, un-ionized and the mixture of them both. The analysis of diclofenac solvation in an aqueous environment is used to understand the origin of drug precipitation, especially in gastric pH. The used computational approach reveals the formation of micelle-like self-associated aggregates of diclofenac in water as the result of intermolecular π-π interactions and C-Hπ hydrogen bonds. The DCL aggregation in water is shown to depend mostly on drug concentration, protonation and temperature of the aqueous environment. The detected self-association properties of the drug in water are likely to be of great importance during the development of new drug formulations and fabrication of drug adsorbents for wastewater.

Abstract
The objective of our study was to develop controlled drug delivery system based on erythrocyte ghosts for amphiphilic compound sodium diclofenac considering the differences between erythrocytes derived from two readily available materials - porcine slaughterhouse and outdated transfusion human blood. Starting erythrocytes, empty erythrocyte ghosts and diclofenac loaded ghosts were compared in terms of the encapsulation efficiency, drug releasing profiles, size distribution, surface charge, conductivity, surface roughness and morphology. The encapsulation of sodium diclofenac was performed by an osmosis based process - gradual hemolysis. During this process sodium diclofenac exerted mild and delayed antihemolytic effect and increased potassium efflux in porcine but not in outdated human erythrocytes. FTIR spectra revealed lack of any membrane lipid disorder and chemical reaction with sodium diclofenac in encapsulated ghosts. Outdated human erythrocyte ghosts with detected nanoscale damages and reduced ability to shrink had encapsulation efficiency of only 8%. On the other hand, porcine erythrocyte ghosts had encapsulation efficiency of 37% and relatively slow drug release rate. More preserved structure and functional properties of porcine erythrocytes related to their superior encapsulation and release performances, define them as more appropriate for the usage in sodium diclofenac encapsulation process.

Abstract
Despite the well-documented information, there are insufficient reports concerning the effects of salicylate compounds on the structure and functions of cell membranes, particularly those of human erythrocytes. With the aim to better understand the molecular mechanisms of the interaction of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and salicylic acid (SA) with cell membranes, human erythrocyte membranes and molecular models were utilized. These consisted of bilayers of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE), representative of phospholipid classes located in the outer and inner monolayers of the human erythrocyte membrane, respectively. The capacity of ASA and SA to perturb the multibilayer structures of DMPC and DMPE was evaluated by X-ray diffraction while DMPC unilamellar vesicles (LUV) were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Moreover, we took advantage of the capability of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to detect the changes in the thermotropic phase behavior of lipid bilayers resulting from ASA and SA interaction with PC and PE molecules. In an attempt to further elucidate their effects on cell membranes, the present work also examined their influence on the morphology of intact human erythrocytes by means of defocusing and scanning electron microscopy, while isolated unsealed human erythrocyte membranes (IUM) were studied by fluorescence spectroscopy. Results indicated that both salicylates interact with human erythrocytes and their molecular models in a concentration-dependent manner perturbing their bilayer structures.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most commonly used drugs in the world due to their anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties. Nevertheless, the consumption of these drugs is still associated with the occurrence of a wide spectrum of adverse effects. Regarding the major role of membranes in cellular events, the hypothesis that the biological actions of NSAIDs may be related to their effect at the membrane level has triggered the in vitro assessment of NSAIDs-membrane interactions. The use of membrane mimetic models, cell cultures, a wide range of experimental techniques and molecular dynamics simulations has been providing significant information about drugs partition and location within membranes and also about their effect on diverse membrane properties. These studies have indeed been providing evidences that the effect of NSAIDs at membrane level may be an additional mechanism of action and toxicity of NSAIDs. In fact, the pharmacokinetic properties of NSAIDs are closely related to the ability of these drugs to interact and overcome biological membranes. Moreover, the therapeutic actions of NSAIDs may also result from the indirect inhibition of cyclooxygenase due to the disturbing effect of NSAIDs on membrane properties. Furthermore, increasing evidences suggest that the disordering effects of these drugs on membranes may be in the basis of the NSAIDs-induced toxicity in diverse organ systems. Overall, the study of NSAIDs-membrane interactions has proved to be not only important for the better understanding of their pharmacological actions, but also for the rational development of new approaches to overcome NSAIDs adverse effects.

Abstract
This report presents evidence that the following Solanum steroids: solasodine, diosgenin and solanine interact with human erythrocytes and molecular models of their membranes as follows: a) X-ray diffraction studies showed that the compounds at low molar ratios (0.1-10.0mol%) induced increasing structural perturbation to dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers and to a considerable lower extent to those of dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine; b) differential scanning calorimetry data showed that the compounds were able to alter the cooperativity of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine, dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine and dimyristoylphosphatidylserine phase transitions in a concentration-dependent manner; c) in the presence of steroids, the fluorescence of Merocyanine 540 incorporated to the membranes decreased suggesting a fluidization of the lipid system; d) scanning electron microscopy observations showed that all steroids altered the normal shape of human erythrocytes inducing mainly echinocytosis, characterized by the formation of blebs in their surfaces, an indication that their molecules are located into the outer monolayer of the erythrocyte membrane.

Abstract
In the paper, we present an improved method for evaluation of a compound ability to destabilize erythrocyte plasma membrane. The proposed method is based on the continuous monitoring of the light scattered by erythrocytes exposed to osmotic pressure differences. The kinetics of hemolysis depends on the plasma membrane mechanics and the extent of the osmotic stress. Generally, the osmotic pressure difference of approximately 150 mOsm is taken for measurements, as a result of the equal volume mixing with the physiological salt solutions. In this approach the hemolytic process completion is not established which may result in poor quality and reproducibility of the experimental data. In consequence, inaccurate parameters of the kinetic are determined due to the low quality fitting to the, widely used, single exponential model. In the paper we propose a new experimental protocol allowing to determine the extended set of parameters for kinetics of hemolysis. Namely, the method of the minimal osmotic pressure difference determination is proposed which ensures the completeness of the hemolytic process. This step allows improving the quality and exactness of the calculated parameters. The developed methodology was tested on two qualitatively different, biologically relevant, experiments; evaluation of the peptide effect on the plasma membrane properties and differentiating between human and rabbit erythrocytes.

Abstract
Naproxen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has been widely investigated in terms of its pharmacological action, but less is known about its effects on cell membranes and particularly those of human erythrocytes. In the present work, the structural effects on the human erythrocyte membrane and molecular models have been investigated. The latter consisted in bilayers built-up of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE), classes of lipids found in the outer and inner moieties of the erythrocyte and most cell membranes, respectively. This report presents evidence that naproxen interacts with red cell membranes as follows: a) in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies on human erythrocytes it has been observed that the drug induced shape changes, forming echinocytes at a concentration as low as 10microM; b) X-ray diffraction showed that naproxen strongly interacted with DMPC multilayers; in contrast, no perturbing effects on DMPE multilayers were detected; c) differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) data showed a decrease in the melting temperature (T(m)) of DMPC liposomes, which was attributed to a destabilization of the gel phase, effect that was less pronounced for DMPE. These experimental results were observed at concentrations lower than those reported for plasma after therapeutic administration. This is the first time in which the structural effects of naproxen on the human erythrocyte membrane have been described.

Abstract
The field of drug-membrane interactions is one that spans a wide range of scientific disciplines, from synthetic chemistry, through biophysics to pharmacology. Cell membranes are complex dynamic systems whose structures can be affected by drug molecules and in turn can affect the pharmacological properties of the drugs being administered. In this tutorial review we aim to provide a guide for those new to the area of drug-membrane interactions and present an introduction to areas of this topic which need to be considered. We address the lipid composition and structure of the cell membrane and comment on the physical forces present in the membrane which may impact on drug interactions. We outline methods by which drugs may cross or bind to this membrane, including the well understood passive and active transport pathways. We present a range of techniques which may be used to study the interactions of drugs with membranes both in vitro and in vivo and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these techniques and highlight new methods being developed to further this field.
