Abstract
The organization of metallic nanoparticles into assembled films is a complex process. The type of nanoparticle stabilizing ligand and the method for creating an organized layer can profoundly affect the optical properties of the resulting nanoparticle assembly. Investigations of the ligand structure and nanoparticle interactions can provide a greater understanding of the design of the assembly process and the quality of the resulting materials. One of the functionalization methods in the preparation of specific gold nanorods is the utilization of thiol-terminated poly(ethylene glycol). This generates gold nanorods capable of forming stable monolayers at the air-water interface upon dispersion in a suitable organic solvent. Herein, we show that depending on the molecular weight of the poly(ethylene glycol), the structures obtained at the air-water and air-solid interfaces differ in the arrangement. The studied structures were characterized by using spectroscopic and microscopic techniques, and the structural type was correlated with the polymer type. Insoluble and stable Langmuir monolayers composed of higher-molecular-weight gold nanorods with poly(ethylene glycol) were formed only in the presence of an additional stabilizer that prevented the formation of gold nanorods in aqueous solutions. At the air-solid interface, conformational changes in poly(ethylene glycol) induced the aggregation of gold nanorods, which became closely packed under the influence of surface pressure. The presented results suggested that the arrangement of two-dimensional layers of gold nanorods could be tailored using poly(ethylene glycol) of various molecular weights.

Preparation of Thin Films Containing Modified Hydroxyapatite Particles and Phospholipids (DPPC) for Improved Properties of Biomaterials. Molecules 2023; 28:7843. [PMID: 38067571 PMCID: PMC10708029 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28237843] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The main aims of thin biofilm synthesis are to either achieve a new form to promote the transport of drugs in oral delivery systems or as a coating to improve the biocompatibility of the implant's surface. In this study, the Langmuir monolayer technique was employed to obtain films containing Mg-doped hydroxyapatite with 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% Mg(II). The obtained modified HA particles were analysed via the FT-IR, XRD, DLS, and SEM methods. It was shown that the modified hydroxyapatite particles were able to form thin films at the air/water interface. BAM microscopy was employed to characterized the morphology of these films. In the next step, the mixed films were prepared using phospholipid (DPPC) molecules and modified hydroxyapatite particles (HA-Mg(II)). We expected that the presence of phospholipids (DPPC) in thin films improved the biocompatibility of the preparing films, while adding HA-Mg(II) particles will promote antibacterial properties and enhance osteogenesis processes. The films were prepared in two ways: (1) by mixing DPPC and HA-Mg (II) and spreading this solution onto the subphase, or (2) by forming DPPC films, dropping the HA-Mg (II) dispersion onto the phospholipid monolayer. Based on the obtained π-A isotherms, the surface parameters of the achieved thin films were estimated. It was observed that the HA-Mg(II) films can be stabilized with phospholipid molecules, and a more stable structure was obtained from films synthesied via method (2).

Abstract
Advancing our understanding of the mechanism of the interaction between inhaled pollutant microparticles and cell membrane components is useful to study the impact of fine particulate matter on human health. In this paper, we focus on the effect of cholesterol (Chol) molecules on the surface properties of a model membrane in the presence of silica microparticles (MPs). Mixed monolayers containing phospholipid-dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), Chol and silica particle dispersions (MPs; 0.033% w/w, 0.33% w/w and 0.83% w/w) were formed and studied using the Langmuir monolayer technique complemented by Brewster Angle Microscopy (BAM) images. It was shown that Chol caused a condensation of the DPPC monolayer, which influenced the penetration of MPs and their interactions with the model membrane. The relaxation experiments of the lipid–MP monolayer proved that the presence of Chol molecules in the monolayer led to the formation of lipid and MP complexes. Strong interactions between Chol and MPs contributed to the formation of more stable monolayers. The presented results can be useful to better comprehend the interaction between particulate materials and the lipid components of biomembranes.

Interaction of negatively and positively capped gold nanoparticle with different lipid model membranes. Biophys Chem 2022; 290:106896.

Abstract
The use of functionalised gold nanoparticles in biomedical applications is expanding. Here we explore the interaction of gold nanoparticles with lipid membranes using readily available equipment and basic techniques to explore how the charge on the nanoparticles, and the nature of the lipid, influences the interaction. Gold nanoparticles were synthesised with two different surface functionalisations, negatively charged citrate groups and positively charged cetyltrimethylammonium groups from CTAB, to determine how surface charge affects the interaction of the nanoparticles with the Zwitterionic lipid POPC and the anionic lipid POPG. It was observed that the surface pressure/area isotherms of POPG monolayers on exposure to citrate capped nanoparticles were not shifted to higher molecular areas as much as those of POPC, suggesting that the anionic headgroups of the POPG lipid repel the anionic surface charge of the citrate capped nanoparticles to some extent limiting inclusion. In contrast, the surface pressure/area isotherms of the POPG monolayers exposed to CTAB capped nanoparticles are shifted to higher molecular areas more than for the POPC monolayers. The interaction of anionic nanoparticles with lipid bilayers was measured by the mass change of the bilayer deposited on the surface of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) exposed to nanoparticles in an aqueous phase flow. The QCM frequency changes show that bilayers of unsaturated phosophocholine lipids readily took up particles, whereas for the saturated lipid DPPC significant uptake was only observed when the bilayer was warmed to above its gel-to-fluid transition temperature, Tm. This is possibly due to an increase in the molecular mobility and bilayer bending modulus, κ, of the bilayer.

Abstract
The interaction of hydrophobic silicon dioxide particles (fumed silicon dioxide), as model air pollutants, and Langmuir monolayers of a porcine lung surfactant extract has been studied in order to try to shed light on the physicochemical bases underlying the potential adverse effects associated with pollutant inhalation. The surface pressure-area isotherms of lung surfactant (LS) films including increasing amounts of particles revealed that particle incorporation into LS monolayers modifies the organization of the molecules at the water/vapor interface, which alters the mechanical resistance of the interfacial films, hindering the ability of LS layers for reducing the surface tension, and reestablishing the interface upon compression. This influences the normal physiological function of LS as is inferred from the analysis of the response of the Langmuir films upon the incorporation of particles against harmonic changes of the interfacial area (successive compression-expansion cycles). These experiments evidenced that particles alter the relaxation mechanisms of LS films, which may be correlated to a modification of the transport of material within the interface and between the interface and the adjacent fluid during the respiratory cycle.

Abstract
Pollution is currently a public health problem associated with different cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. These are commonly originated as a result of the pollutant transport to the alveolar cavity after their inhalation. Once pollutants enter the alveolar cavity, they are deposited on the lung surfactant (LS) film, altering their mechanical performance which increases the respiratory work and can induce a premature alveolar collapse. Furthermore, the interactions of pollutants with LS can induce the formation of an LS corona decorating the pollutant surface, favoring their penetration into the bloodstream and distribution along different organs. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the most fundamental aspects of the interaction of particulate pollutants with LS to mitigate their effects, and design therapeutic strategies. However, the use of animal models is often invasive, and requires a careful examination of different bioethics aspects. This makes it necessary to design in vitro models mimicking some physico-chemical aspects with relevance for LS performance, which can be done by exploiting the tools provided by the science and technology of interfaces to shed light on the most fundamental physico-chemical bases governing the interaction between LS and particulate matter. This review provides an updated perspective of the use of fluid films of LS models for shedding light on the potential impact of particulate matter in the performance of LS film. It should be noted that even though the used model systems cannot account for some physiological aspects, it is expected that the information contained in this review can contribute on the understanding of the potential toxicological effects of air pollution.

Abstract
Biocompatible materials are increasingly used for pulmonary drug delivery, and it is essential to understand their potential impact on the respiratory system, notably their effect on lung surfactant, a monolayer of lipids and proteins, responsible for preventing alveolar collapse during breathing cycles. We have developed a complex mimic of lung surfactant composed of eight lipids mixed in ratios reported for native lung surfactant. A synthetic peptide based on surfactant protein B was added to better mimic the biological system. This model was used to evaluate the impact of biocompatible gelatin and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) nanoparticles. Surface pressure–area isotherms were used to assess lipid packing, film compressibility and stability, whereas the lateral organization was visualized by Brewster angle microscopy. Nanoparticles increased film fluidity and altered the monolayer collapse pressure. Bright protruding clusters formed in their presence indicate a significant impact on the lateral organization of the surfactant film. Altogether, this work indicates that biocompatible materials considered to be safe for drug delivery still need to be assessed for their potential detrimental impact before use in therapeutic applications Biodegradable nanoparticles drastically alters lateral organization of lung surfactant lipid- peptide model system.![]()

Abstract
Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films holding a synthetic bioinspired wound healing active compound were used as drug-delivery platforms. Palmitic acid Langmuir monolayers were able to incorporate 2-methyltriclisine, a synthetic Triclisine derivative that showed wound healing activity. The layers proved to be stable and the nanocomposites were transferred to solid substrates. Normal human lung cells (Medical Research Council cell strain 5, MRC-5) were grown over the monomolecular Langmuir-Blodgett films that acted as a drug reservoir and delivery system. The proliferation and migration of the cells were clearly affected by the presence of 2-methyltriclisine in the amphiphilic layers. The methodology is proposed as a simple and reliable model for the study of the effects of bioactive compounds over cellular cultures.

Abstract
Self-assembled peptide nanofibers (NFs) obtained from β-sheet peptides conjugated with drugs, including antigenic peptides, have recently attracted significant attention. However, extensive studies on the interactions of β-sheet peptide NFs with model cell membranes have not been reported. In this study, we investigated the interactions between three types of NFs, composed of PEG-peptide conjugates with different ethylene glycol (EG) lengths (6-, 12- and 24-mer), and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) Langmuir membranes. When increasing the EG chain length, those interactions significantly decreased considering measurements in the presence of the NFs of: (i) changes in surface pressure of the DPPC Langmuir monolayers and (ii) surface pressure-area (π-A) compression isotherms of DPPC. Because the observed trend was similar to the EG length dependency with regard to cellular association and cytotoxicity of the NFs that was reported previously, the interaction of NFs with phospholipid membranes represented a crucial factor to determine the cellular association and toxicity of the NFs. In contrast to NFs, no changes were observed with varying EG chain length on the interaction of the building block peptide with the DPPC membrane. The results obtained herein can provide a design guideline on the formulation of β-sheet peptide NFs, which may broaden its potential.

Abstract
Particulate matter (PM), which is the primary contributor to air pollution, has become a pervasive global health threat. When PM enters into a respiratory tract, the first body tissues to be directly exposed are the cells of respiratory tissues and pulmonary surfactant. Pulmonary surfactant is a pivotal component to modulate surface tension of alveoli during respiration. Many studies have proved that PM would interact with pulmonary surfactant to affect the alveolar activity, and meanwhile, pulmonary surfactant would be adsorbed to the surface of PM to change the toxic effect of PM. This review focuses on recent studies of the interactions between micro/nanoparticles (synthesized and environmental particles) and pulmonary surfactant (natural surfactant and its models), as well as the health effects caused by PM through a few significant aspects, such as surface properties of PM, including size, surface charge, hydrophobicity, shape, chemical nature, etc. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo studies have shown that PM leads to oxidative stress, inflammatory response, fibrosis, and cancerization in living bodies. By providing a comprehensive picture of PM-surfactant interaction, this review will benefit both researchers for further studies and policy-makers for setting up more appropriate regulations to reduce the adverse effects of PM on public health.

Abstract
In this study, the interfacial behavior of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine/1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'-rac-glycerol) (DPPC/DPPG) mixed monolayers with fluoxetine (FLX) in the subphase was investigated by a combination of the Langmuir-Blodgett technique and atomic force microscopy (AFM). It was found that DPPC/DPPG mixed monolayers showed different interfacial behaviors before and after addition of FLX in the subphase. The electrostatic interaction between FLX and lipids molecules destroys the homogeneity of the mixed monolayers and changes the arrangement of lipids molecules at the interface after addition of FLX in the subphase, thereby leading to an increase of compressibility and miscibility and a decrease in the stability of the mixed monolayers. The surface morphology of the mixed monolayers observed by AFM was different between without and with FLX in the subphase, indicating the penetration of FLX into the mixed monolayers. The present study has provided detailed information for further understanding the interactions of drugs with membrane lipids in other lipid monolayers.

Abstract
Lipid layers are considered among the first protective barriers of the human body against pollutants, e.g., skin, lung surfactant, or tear film. This makes it necessary to explore the physico-chemical bases underlying the interaction of pollutants and lipid layers. This work evaluates using a pool of surface-sensitive techniques, the impact of carbon black and fumed silica particles on the behavior of Langmuir monolayers of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC). The results show that the incorporation of particles into the lipid monolayers affects the surface pressure–area isotherm of the DPPC, modifying both the phase behavior and the collapse conditions. This is explained considering that particles occupy a part of the area available for lipid organization, which affects the lateral organization of the lipid molecules, and consequently the cohesion interactions within the monolayer. Furthermore, particles incorporation worsens the mechanical performance of lipid layers, which may impact negatively in different processes presenting biological relevance. The modification induced by the particles has been found to be dependent on their specific chemical nature. This work tries to shed light on some of the most fundamental physico-chemical bases governing the interaction of pollutants with lipid layers, which plays an essential role on the design of strategies for preventing the potential health hazards associated with pollution.

Abstract
With the intention to provide a robust and economical model that can be used for predicting particle interactions with the pulmonary surfactant, this study was aimed to find an artificial surfactant model that perfectly mimics the properties of the natural pulmonary surfactant. A surfactant model should be reproducible, robust, and able to predict interactions between the pulmonary surfactant and exogenous influences from air and the aqueous site. We compared three synthetic models with the natural bovine surfactant Alveofact. The lung conditions were simulated by spreading the surfactants at the air/aqueous interface on a Langmuir trough with movable barriers. All three artificial surfactant models showed properties very similar to that of Alveofact. Visualization of the monolayers by atomic force microscopy revealed very similar structures with domain formation. The Tanaka lipid mixture has already shown good results in vitro and in vivo in previous studies. The 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC)-1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC) model has large conformations in the surface pressure isotherms and showed a biomimetic exclusion plateau, indicative of an effective lung surfactant formulation. Also, the equilibrium spreading pressure was similar. DPPC-1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-1'-rac-glycerol (POPG) had the greatest similarities with Alveofact in the hysteresis areas. The kinetic constants of the relaxation experiments during desorption showed that the PCPG model (at 30 mN/m) had almost identical diffusion and dissolution values as Alveofact. As a proof of concept, the interaction of the models with PLGA nanoparticles showed promising results in all experiments for all the three surfactant models. The results show that the choice of components in a model play a crucial role in obtaining reproducible results. The selected models can be used for further studies as synthetic in vitro lung models.

Abstract
Carbon nanomaterials are widespread in the atmospheric aerosol as a result of the combustion processes and their extensive industrial use. This has raised many question about the potential toxicity associated with the inhalation of such nanoparticles, and its incorporation into the lung surfactant layer. In order to shed light on the main physical bases underlying the incorporation of carbon nanomaterials into lung surfactant layers, this work has studied the interaction at the water/vapor interface of carbon nanosheets (CN) with Langmuir monolayers of 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), with this lipid being the main component of lung surfactant layers and responsible of some of the most relevant features of such film. The incorporation of CN into DPPC Langmuir monolayers modifies the lateral organization of the DPPC at the interface, which is explained on the basis of two different effects: (i) particles occupy part of the interfacial area, and (ii) impoverishment of the lipid composition of the interface due to lipid adsorption onto the CN surface. This results in a worsening of the mechanical performance of the monolayers which may present a negative impact in the physiological performance of lung surfactant. It would be expected that the results obtained here can be useful as a step toward the understanding of the most fundamental physico-chemical bases associated with the effect of inhaled particles in the respiratory cycle.

Abstract
Upon inhalation, nanoparticles enter the lungs where the pulmonary surfactant forms the first point of contact and plays a pivotal role for the subsequent absorption into the body. This can lead to interactions that alter the biophysical function of the surfactant monolayer. Therefore, a reliable prediction of the interaction is desired. In this study, we compared the behaviour of an artificial surfactant model with that of a natural surfactant upon exposure to chitosan nanoparticles. To simulate the physiology of the lungs, the surfactant monolayers were placed at an air/aqueous interface of a Langmuir film balance. Based on the data obtained from the experiments, the chitosan nanoparticles first integrated into the monolayer of the natural surfactant and then interact strongly with its compounds thereby moving out of the monolayer. The topographic changes in the monolayer were determined by atomic force microscopy analysis. Using this technique, the nanoparticle localisation on the monolayer could be studied. No visible interaction was observed with the artificial surfactant from surface pressure-time isotherms and atomic force microscopy analysis. Incomplete miscibility lead to instability of the artificial surfactant which left behind a DPPC rich monolayer after nanoparticle interaction. It was not stable enough to see a possible interaction (i.e. change in surface pressure) with the nanoparticles directly. These results should help understand the interactions of lipids among themselves and with the nanoparticles. Furthermore, it should help generate an efficient artificial surfactant model and to understand the underlying mechanisms of the nanoparticle interaction with the monolayer.

Abstract
Over the last two decades, understanding of the attachment of colloids to fluid interfaces has attracted the interest of researchers from different fields. This is explained by considering the ubiquity of colloidal and interfacial systems in nature and technology. However, to date, the control and tuning of the assembly of colloids at fluid interfaces remain a challenge. This review discusses some of the most fundamental aspects governing the organization of colloidal objects at fluid interfaces, paying special attention to spherical particles. This requires a description of different physicochemical aspects, from the driving force involved in the assembly to its thermodynamic description, and from the interactions involved in the assembly to the dynamics and rheological behavior of particle-laden interfaces.

Abstract
Pulmonary administration is widely used for the treatment of lung diseases. The interaction between drug molecules and pulmonary surfactants affects the efficacy of the drug directly. The location and distribution of drug molecules in a model pulmonary surfactant monolayer under different surface pressures can provide vivid information on the interaction between drug molecules and pulmonary surfactants during the pulmonary administration. Ketoprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug for pulmonary administration. The effect of ketoprofen molecules on the lipid monolayer containing 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) and 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-glycerol (DPPG) is studied by surface pressure (π)-area (A) isotherms and compressibility modulus (Cs-1)-surface pressure (π) isotherms. The location and distribution of ketoprofen molecules in a lipid monolayer under different surface pressures are explored by surface tension, density profile, radial distribution function (RDF), and the potential of mean force (PMF) simulated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The introduction of ketoprofen molecules affects the properties of DPPC/DPPG monolayers and the location and distribution of ketoprofen molecules in monolayers with various surface pressures. The existence of ketoprofen molecules hinders the formation of liquid-condensed (LC) films and decreases the compressibility of DPPC/DPPG monolayers. The location and distribution of ketoprofen molecules in the lipid monolayer are affected by cation-π interaction between the choline group of lipids and the benzene ring of ketoprofen, the steric hindrance of the lipid head groups, and the hydrophobicity of ketoprofen molecule itself, comprehensively. The contact state of lipid head group with water is determined by surface pressure, which affects the interaction between drug molecules and lipids and further dominates the location and distribution of ketoprofen in the lipid monolayer. This work confirms that ketoprofen molecules can affect the property and the inner structure of DPPC/DPPG monolayers during breathing. Furthermore, the results obtained using a mixed monolayer containing two major pulmonary surfactants DPPC/DPPG and ketoprofen molecules will be helpful for the in-depth understanding of the mechanism of inhaled administration therapy.

Abstract
A good understanding of the mechanism of interaction between inhaled pollutant nanoparticles (NPs) and the pulmonary surfactant monolayer is useful to study the impact of fine particulate matter on human health. In this work, we established coarse-grained models of four representative NPs with different hydrophilicity properties in the air (i.e., CaSO4, C, SiO2, and C6H14O2 NPs) and the pulmonary surfactant monolayer. Molecular dynamic simulations of the interaction during exhalation and inhalation breathing states were performed. The effects of NP hydrophilicity levels, NP structural properties, and cholesterol content in the monolayer on the behaviors of NP embedment or the transmembrane were analyzed by calculating the changes in potential energy, NP displacement, monolayer orderliness, and surface tension. Results showed that NPs can inhibit the ability of the monolayer to adjust surface tension. For all breathing states, the hydrophobic C NP cannot translocate across the monolayer and had the greatest influence on the structural properties of the monolayer, whereas the strongly hydrophilic SiO2 and C6H14O2 NPs can cross the monolayer with little impact. The semi-hydrophilic CaSO4 NP can penetrate the monolayer only during the inhalation breathing state. The hydrophilic flaky NP shows the best penetration ability, followed by the rod-shaped NP and spherical NP in turn. An increase in cholesterol content of the monolayer led to improved orderliness and decreased fluidity of the membrane system due to enhanced intermolecular forces. Consequently, difficulty in crossing the monolayer increased for the NPs.

Abstract
In this work, the effect of silica nanoparticles (NPs) adding to DPPC monolayer and the interaction between DPPC and silica nanoparticles are studied. Silica nanoparticles are prepared by microemulsion, meanwhile, DMDCS and APTES are used to modify silica NPs to get three types of modified silica NPs. These samples are mixed with DPPC to form mixed monolayer. By using the atomic force microscope (AFM), surface pressure-area and pressure-time isotherms, the effects of different hydrophilic-hydrophobic silica nanoparticles on the interface of lipid monolayer is analyzed. The data shows that the addition of silica nanoparticles changes the phase behavior, the collapse time and the structure of monolayer. Hydrophilic silica NPs decreases the collapse pressure and rigidity of DPPC monolayer, and makes monolayer collapse earlier since the steric hindrance leads to the resistance to compression, while hydrophobic silica NPs have less effect on monolayer in collapse pressure or rigidity but the texture of monolayer, and the addition of hydrophobic NPs causes the appearance of holes in the monolayer. We suppose that there are several possible locations of hydrophobic and hydrophilic silica nanoparticles in the air-water interface, which leads to different effects on the structure and rheological behavior of monolayer. This study can deepen the understanding on how nanoparticles affect human body since industries of nanoparticles on drug delivery, oil recovery and floatation are developing rapidly and getting more and more outside interest on a daily basis.

Abstract
Particle-laden interfaces are ubiquitous nowadays. The understanding of their properties and structure is essential for solving different problems of technological and industrial relevance; e.g. stabilization of foams, emulsions and thin films. These rely on the response of the interface to mechanical perturbations. The complex mechanical response appearing in particle-laden interfaces requires deepening on the understanding of physico-chemical mechanisms underlying the assembly of particles at interface which plays a central role in the distribution of particles at the interface, and in the complex interfacial dynamics appearing in these systems. Therefore, the study of particle-laden interfaces deserves attention to provide a comprehensive explanation on the complex relaxation mechanisms involved in the stabilization of fluid interfaces.

Abstract
Langmuir monolayers of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and a mixture of DPPC with curcumin (CUR) have been investigated at the air-water interface through a combination of surface pressure measurements and atomic force microscopy (AFM) observation. By analyzing the correlation data of mean molecular areas, the compressibility coefficient, and other thermodynamic parameters, we obtained that the interaction between the two components perhaps was mainly governed by the hydrogen bonding between the amino group of DPPC and the hydroxyl groups of CUR. CUR markedly affected the surface compressibility, the thermodynamic stability, and the thermodynamic phase behaviors of mixed monolayers. The interaction between CUR and DPPC was sensitive to the components and the physical states of mixed monolayers under compression. Two-dimensional phase diagrams and interaction energies indicated that DPPC and CUR molecules were miscible in mixed monolayers. AFM images results were in agreement with these analyses results of experimental data. This study will encourage us to further research the application of CUR in the biomedical field.

Abstract
The effect of the incorporation of hydrophilic titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles on the interfacial properties of Langmuir monolayers of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) has been evaluated combining interfacial thermodynamic studies, dilatational rheology, and Brewster angle microscopy (BAM). The results show that the TiO2 nanoparticles are able to penetrate DPPC layers, modifying the organization of the molecules and, consequently, the phase behavior and viscoelastic properties of the systems. Measurements of dilational viscoelasticity against the frequency have been performed, using the oscillatory barrier method, at different values of the surface pressure corresponding to different degrees of compression of the monolayer. The presence of TiO2 nanoparticles also affects the dynamic response of the monolayer modifying both the quasi-equilibrium dilatational elasticity and the high frequency limit of the viscoelastic modulus. The principal aim of this work is to understand the fundamental physicochemical bases related to the incorporation of specific nanoparticles of technological interest into the interfacial layer with biological relevance such as phospholipid layers. This can provide information on potential adverse effects of nanoparticles for health and the environment.

Abstract
DPPC (dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine) is a disaturated lipid capable of forming closely packed monolayers at the air-liquid interface of the lung and allows the surface tension within the alveoli to reduce to almost zero and thus prevent alveolar collapse. Carbon nanoparticles are formed in natural and man-made combustion events, including diesel engines, and are capable of reaching the alveolar epithelium during breathing. In this work, we have used Brewster angle microscopy and neutron reflectivity to study the effect of differing concentrations of carbon nanoparticles on the structure of DPPC monolayer as the monolayer is subject to compression and expansion. The results show that the inclusion of carbon nanoparticles within a DPPC monolayer affects the formation and structure of the lipid domains. The domains lose their circular structure and show a crenated structure as well as a reduction in overall size of the domains. This change in structure is also evident following expansion of the lipid monolayer, suggesting that some carbon nanoparticles may remain associated with the monolayer. This observation could have an important implication regarding the removal of nanosized airborne pollutants from the human lung.

Applications of Brewster angle microscopy from biological materials to biological systems. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-BIOMEMBRANES 2017; 1859:1749-1766. [PMID: 28655618 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamem.2017.06.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2017] [Revised: 06/22/2017] [Accepted: 06/23/2017] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Brewster angle microscopy (BAM) is a powerful technique that allows for real-time visualization of Langmuir monolayers. The lateral organization of these films can be investigated, including phase separation and the formation of domains, which may be of different sizes and shapes depending on the properties of the monolayer. Different molecules or small changes within a molecule such as the molecule's length or presence of a double bond can alter the monolayer's lateral organization that is usually undetected using surface pressure-area isotherms. The effect of such changes can be clearly observed using BAM in real-time, under full hydration, which is an experimental advantage in many cases. While previous BAM reviews focused more on selected compounds or compared the impact of structural variations on the lateral domain formation, this review provided a broader overview of BAM application using biological materials and systems including the visualization of amphiphilic molecules, proteins, drugs, extracts, DNA, and nanoparticles at the air-water interface.

Abstract
Quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) has been proven to be a powerful research tool to investigate in situ interactions between nanoparticles and different functionalized surfaces in liquids. QCM-D can also be used to quantitatively determine adsorption kinetics of polymers, DNA and proteins from solutions on various substrate surfaces while providing insights into conformations of adsorbed molecules. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview on various important applications of QCM-D, focusing on deposition of nanoparticles and attachment-detachment of nanoparticles on model membranes in complex fluid systems. We will first describe the working principle of QCM-D and DLVO theory pertinent to understanding nanoparticle deposition phenomena. The interactions between different nanoparticles and functionalized surfaces for different application areas are then critically reviewed. Finally, the potential applications of QCM-D in other important fields are proposed and knowledge gaps are identified.

Abstract
We study the impact of the addition of particles of a range of sizes on the phase transition behavior of lung surfactant under compression. Charged particles ranging from micro- to nanoscale are deposited on lung surfactant films in a Langmuir trough. Surface area versus surface pressure isotherms and fluorescent microscope observations are utilized to determine changes in the phase transition behavior. We find that the deposition of particles close to 20 nm in diameter significantly impacts the coexistence of the liquid-condensed phase and liquid-expanded phase. This includes morphological changes of the liquid-condensed domains and the elimination of the squeeze-out phase in isotherms. Finally, a drastic increase of the domain fraction of the liquid-condensed phase can be observed for the deposition of 20-nm particles. As the particle size is increased, we observe a return to normal phase behavior. The net result is the observation of a critical particle size that may impact the functionality of the lung surfactant during respiration.

Abstract
We studied the mechanical and structural properties of mixed surface layers composed by 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and silica nanoparticles (NPs). These layers are obtained by spreading a DPPC Langmuir monolayer on a colloidal silica dispersion. The transfer/incorporation of NPs into the DPPC monolayer, driven by electrostatic interactions, alters the molecular orientation, the mechanisms of domain formation, and consequently the phase behavior of the surface layer during compression. The investigation of these systems by means of complementary techniques (Langmuir trough, fluorescence microscopy, ellipsometry, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)) shows that the incorporated NPs preferentially distribute along the liquid expanded phase of DPPC. The layer assumes the stable and homogeneous bidimensional structure of a two-dimensional (2D) analogue of a Pickering emulsion. In fact, the presence of particles provides a circular shape to the DPPC domains and stabilizes them against growth and coalescence during the monolayer compression.

Abstract
The growing number of innovations in nanomedicine and nanobiotechnology are posing new challenges in understanding the full spectrum of interactions between nanomateriales and biomolecules at nano-biointerfaces. Although considerable achievements have been accomplished by in vivo applications, many issues regarding the molecular nature of these interactions are far from being well-understood. In this work, we evaluate the interaction of hydrophobic magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) covered with a single layer of oleic acid with saturated and unsaturated phospholipids found in biomembranes through the use of Langmuir monolayers. We find distinctive interactions among the MNP with saturated and unsaturated phospholipids that are reflected by both, the compression isotherms and the surface topography of the films. The interaction between MNP and saturated lipids causes a noticeable reduction of the mean molecular area in the interfacial plane, while the interaction with unsaturated lipids promotes area expansion compared to the ideally mixed films. Moreover, when liquid expanded and liquid condensed phases of the phospholipid(s) coexist, the MNP preferably partition to the liquid-expanded phase, thus hindering the coalescence of the condensed domains with increasing surface pressure. In consequence organizational information on long-range order is attained. These results evidence the existence of a sensitive composition-dependent surface regulation given by phospholipid-nanoparticle interactions which enhance the biophysical relevance of understanding nanoparticle surface functionalization in relation to its interactions in biointerfaces constituted by defined types of biomolecules.

Abstract
We review the dynamics of particle laden interfaces, both particle monolayers and particle+surfactant monolayers. We also discuss the use of the Brownian motion of microparticles trapped at fluid interfaces for measuring the shear rheology of surfactant and polymer monolayers. We describe the basic concepts of interfacial rheology and the different experimental methods for measuring both dilational and shear surface complex moduli over a broad range of frequencies, with emphasis in the micro-rheology methods. In the case of particles trapped at interfaces the calculation of the diffusion coefficient from the Brownian trajectories of the particles is calculated as a function of particle surface concentration. We describe in detail the calculation in the case of subdiffusive particle dynamics. A comprehensive review of dilational and shear rheology of particle monolayers and particle+surfactant monolayers is presented. Finally the advantages and current open problems of the use of the Brownian motion of microparticles for calculating the shear complex modulus of monolayers are described in detail.

Abstract
The growing use of nanoparticles in a variety of applications calls for detailed studies of their toxicology, which in turn require understanding the interactions between nanoparticles and living cells. Since simulating the interaction with real cell membranes is rather complex, Langmuir monolayers (LMs) have been used to mimic the first barrier encountered by a nanoparticle as it approaches a biological membrane to assess molecular-level interactions. In this study, we show how oppositely charged gold nanoparticles (Au-NPs) interact with monolayers of the zwitterionic dipalmitoylphosphatidyl choline (DPPC) and negatively charged dipalmitoylphosphatidyl glycerol (DPPG). The monolayers were spread on subphases containing two concentrations of either negatively charged Au-NPs coated with citrate anions or positively charged Au-NPs functionalized with the cationic polyelectrolyte poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH). For DPPG, electrostatic effects dominated which depended strongly on the NPs capping agent, being obviously larger for the positive nanoparticles. The in-plane elasticity for DPPG monolayers within the surface pressure range corresponding to real cell membranes increased with adsorption of positively charged NPs, but decreased with the negative ones. For the zwitterionic DPPC, on the other hand, significant effects only occurred for negatively charged NPs, including a decrease in elasticity. Therefore, it is concluded that the nature, namely the charge of the capping agents, is crucial for the interaction of charged NPs with the cell membrane.

Abstract
Langmuir monolayers of Cholesterol (Chol) and a mixture of Chol with 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), at a ratio of 17:83 in weight, spread on pure water and on silica nanoparticle dispersions, have been investigated measuring the compression isotherms as well as the surface pressure response to harmonic area variation of the monolayer. Aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the interaction of silica nanoparticles with Chol and the conditions for the incorporation in the monolayer. In previous works on different kind of lipid monolayers, it has been shown that hydrophilic silica nanoparticles dispersed in the sub-phase may transfer into the monolayer, driven by the interaction with the lipid molecules that make them partially hydrophobic. The results here obtained indicate that also for Chol and Chol-DPPC mixtures the presence of silica nanoparticles may have important effects on the phase behaviour and structural properties of the monolayer. As confirmed by complementary structural characterisations, BAM, AFM and ellipsometry, the principal effect of the nanoparticle incorporation is the disruption of the monolayer packing, owing to the alteration of the cohesive interactions of lipid components.
