Ticagrelor increases its own potency at the P2Y 12 receptor by directly changing the plasma membrane lipid order in platelets. Br J Pharmacol 2024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although the amphiphilic nature of the widely used antithrombotic drug Ticagrelor is well known, it was never considered as a membranotropic agent capable of interacting with the lipid bilayer in a receptor-independent way. In this study, we investigated the influence of Ticagrelor on plasma membrane lipid order in platelets and if this modulates the potency of Ticagrelor at the P2Y12 receptor. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH We combined fluorescent in situ, in vitro and in silico approaches to probe the interactions between the plasma membrane of platelets and Ticagrelor. The influence of Ticagrelor on the lipid order of the platelet plasma membrane and large unilamellar vesicles was studied using the advanced fluorescent probe NR12S. Furthermore, the properties of model lipid bilayers in the presence of Ticagrelor were characterized by molecular dynamics simulations. Finally, the influence of an increased lipid order on the dose-response of platelets to Ticagrelor was studied. KEY RESULTS Ticagrelor incorporates spontaneously into lipid bilayers and affects the lipid order of the membranes of model vesicles and isolated platelets, in a nontrivial composition and concentration-dependent manner. We showed that higher plasma membrane lipid order in platelets leads to a lower IC50 value for Ticagrelor. It is shown that membrane incorporation of Ticagrelor increases its potency at the P2Y12 receptor, by increasing the order of the platelet plasma membrane. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS A novel dual mechanism of Ticagrelor action is suggested that combines direct binding to P2Y12 receptor with simultaneous modulation of receptor-lipid microenvironment.

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.

Abstract
Immunogenic Cell Death (ICD) represents a mechanism of enhancing T cell-driven response against tumor cells. The process is enabled by release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and cytokines by dying cells. Based on molecular studies and clinical marker assessment, ICD can be a new target for cancer chemotherapy hitherto restricted to a few conventional anticancer drugs. In view of the development of small molecules in targeted cancer therapy, we reported the preliminary evidence on the role of the natural product lepadin A (1) as a novel ICD inducer. Here we describe the ICD mechanism of lepadin A (1) by proving the translocation of the protein calreticulin (CRT) to the plasma membrane of human A2058 melanoma cells. CRT exposure is an ICD marker in clinical studies and was associated with the activation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in A2058 cells with lepadin A (1). After the treatment, the tumour cells acquired the ability to activate dendritic cells (DCs) with cytokine release and costimulatory molecule expression that is consistent with a phenotypic profile committed to priming T lymphocytes via a CD91-dependent mechanism. The effect of lepadin A (1) was dose-dependent and comparable to the response of the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (2), a well-established ICD inducer.

Abstract
Drug resistance is known to depend on the interactions with cell membranes and other molecules such as human cytochromes P450 (CYPs) which are anchored on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane and involved in the metabolism of anticancer drugs. In this study, we determined the influence from cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) on the interaction between the drug doxorubicin (DOX) and Langmuir monolayers mimicking cell membranes. The lipid composition was varied by changing the relative concentrations of cholesterol (Chol), 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE), and L-α-phosphatidylinositol (PI). Three compositions were studied in detail which represented a healthy cell membrane and cancerous cell membranes. DOX induced an expansion in the surface pressure isotherms for all monolayers, with stronger effect for the composition of cancerous cell with a high Chol content, thus confirming the relevance of lipid composition. This effect decreased considerably when CYP3A4 was incorporated with the formation of CYP3A4-DOX complexes, according to results from polarization-modulated infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS) measurements. Taken together, these results support the hypothesis of CYP3A4 being involved in drug resistance, which may be exploited to design strategies to enhance chemotherapy efficacy.

Abstract
Lipids, together with molecules such as DNA and proteins, are one of the most relevant systems responsible for the existence of life. Selected lipids are able to assembly into various organized structures, such as lipid membranes. The unique properties of lipid membranes determine their complex functions, not only to separate biological environments, but also to participate in regulatory functions, absorption of nutrients, cell-cell communication, endocytosis, cell signaling, and many others. Despite numerous scientific efforts, still little is known about the reason underlying the variability within lipid membranes, and its biochemical significance. In this review, we discuss the structural complexity of lipid membranes, as well as the importance to simplify studied systems in order to understand phenomena occurring in natural, complex membranes. Such systems require a model interface to be analyzed. Therefore, here we focused on analytical studies of artificial systems at various interfaces. The molecular structure of lipid membranes, specifically the nanometric thickens of molecular bilayer, limits in a major extent the choice of highly sensitive methods suitable to study such structures. Therefore, we focused on methods that combine high sensitivity, and/or chemical selectivity, and/or nanometric spatial resolution, such as atomic force microscopy, nanospectroscopy (tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, infrared nanospectroscopy), phase modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy, sum-frequency generation spectroscopy. We summarized experimental and theoretical approaches providing information about molecular structure and composition, lipid spatial distribution (phase separation), organization (domain shape, molecular orientation) of lipid membranes, and real-time visualization of the influence of various molecules (proteins, drugs) on their integrity. An integral part of this review discusses the latest achievements in the field of lipid layer-based biosensors.

Influence of lipophilicity of anthracyclines on the interactions with cholesterol in the model cell membranes - Langmuir monolayer and SEIRAS studies. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2021; 211:112297.

Abstract
The interactions of anthracyclines with biological membranes strongly depend on the drug lipophilicity, which might also determine the specific affinity to cholesterol molecules. Therefore, in this work we show the studies concerning the effect of two selected anthracyclines, daunorubicin (DNR) and idarubicin (IDA) on simple models of healthy (DMPC:Chol 7:3) and cancer cells membranes with increased level of cholesterol (DMPC:Chol 3:7) as well as pure cholesterol monolayers prepared at the air-water interface and supported on gold surface. It has been shown that more lipophilic IDA is able to penetrate cholesterol monolayers more effectively than DNR due to the formation of IDA-cholesterol arrangements at the interface, as proved by the thermodynamic analysis of compression-expansion cycles. The increased interactions of IDA were also confirmed by the time measurements of pre-compressed monolayers exposed to drug solutions as well as grazing incidence X-ray diffraction studies demonstrating differences in the 2D organization of cholesterol monolayers. Langmuir studies of mixed DMPC:Chol membranes revealed the reorganization of molecules in the cancer cell models at the air-water interface at higher surface pressures due to the removal of DNR, while increased affinity of IDA towards cholesterol allowed this drug to penetrate the layer more efficiently without its removal. The SEIRAS spectra obtained for supported DMPC:Chol bilayers proved that IDA locates both in the ester group and in the acyl chain region of the bilayer, while DNR does not penetrate the membranes as deeply as IDA. The increased penetration of the mixed phospholipid layers by idarubicin might be attributed to the higher lipophilicity caused by the lack of methoxy group and resulting in a specific affinity towards cholesterol.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most efficient antitumor drugs employed in numerous cancer therapies. Its incorporation into lipid-based nanocarriers, such as liposomes, improves the drug targeting into tumor cells and reduces drug side effects. The carriers' lipid composition is expected to affect the interactions of DOX and its partitioning into liposomal membranes. To get a rational insight into this aspect and determine promising lipid compositions, we use numerical simulations, which provide unique information on DOX-membrane interactions at the atomic level of resolution. In particular, we combine classical molecular dynamics simulations and free energy calculations to elucidate the mechanism of penetration of a protonated Doxorubicin molecule (DOX+) into potential liposome membranes, here modeled as lipid bilayers based on mixtures of phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin (SM) and cholesterol lipid molecules, of different compositions and lipid phases. Moreover, we analyze DOX+ partitioning into relevant regions of SM-based lipid bilayer systems using a combination of free energy methods. Our results show that DOX+ penetration and partitioning are facilitated into less tightly packed SM-based membranes and are dependent on lipid composition. This work paves the way to further investigations of optimal formulations for lipid-based carriers, such as those associated with pH-responsive membranes.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the direct in vitro effects of anticancer drugs on red blood cells (RBCs) and to explore the underlying mechanism, mainly by measuring RBCs oxidative stress (OS) status. After RBCs direct contact with fourteen (14) anticancer drugs, several parameters were assessed including: cellular turbidity, methemoglobin (metHb) generation, released Hb and Hb stability. Moreover, intracellular Hb, considered as new molecular target of anticancer drugs, was quantified inside RBCs. MDA level, the main biomarker of OS, was simultaneously measured. The cellular turbidity reveled severe (docetaxel "TXT", 0.03 ± 0.002), moderate (methotrexate "MTX", 0.49 ± 0.009), or none (5-fluorouracil "5-FU", 0.76 ± 0.029) membrane cytotoxicity (MC). An inverse relationship between cell concentration, released Hb and metHb content was obtained. High metHb generation, revealing intense OS, was also mostly expressed in paclitaxel "TXL" and etoposide "VP16". Further, epirubicin "EPI" and "TXT" induced important oxidation of membrane lipids with 0.32 ± 0.014 and 0.26 ± 0.004, respectively. Also, MTX (0.17 ± 0.006) and doxorubicin "DOX" (0.32 ± 0.034) affected significantly Hb stability by a direct contact with molecule. These findings demonstrated that anticancer drugs have the ability to induce membrane damages by the exacerbation of OS through membrane lipid peroxidation and Hb oxidation even inside RBCs.

Abstract
Epirubicin is a cytotoxic drug used in the treatment of different types of cancer and increasing evidence suggests that its target is cell membranes. In order to gain insight on its toxic effects, intact red blood cells (RBC), human erythrocyte membranes and molecular models were used. The latter consisted in bilayers of dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DMPE), phospholipid classes found mainly in the outer and inner monolayers of the human erythrocyte membrane, respectively. The results obtained by X-ray diffraction displayed that epirubicin induced structural perturbations in multilayers of DMPC. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that epirubicin disturbed the thermotropic behavior of both DMPC and DMPE vesicles, whereas fluorescence spectroscopy demonstrated alterations in the fluidity of DMPC vesicles and the erythrocyte membrane. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that epirubicin changed the normal discoid form of RBC to echinocytes and stomatocytes. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) disclosed that this drug induced conformational changes in the erythrocyte membrane proteins. These findings demonstrate that epirubicin interacts with lipids and proteins of the human erythrocyte membrane, effects that might compromise the integrity and function of cell membranes. This is the first time that its toxic effects on the human erythrocyte membrane have been described.

Licofelone-DPPC Interactions: Putting Membrane Lipids on the Radar of Drug Development. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24030516.

Abstract
(1) Background: Membrane lipids have been disregarded in drug development throughout the years. Recently, they gained attention in drug design as targets, but they are still disregarded in the latter stages. Thus, this study aims to highlight the relevance of considering membrane lipids in the preclinical phase of drug development. (2) Methods: The interactions of a drug candidate for clinical use (licofelone) with a membrane model system made of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) were evaluated by combining Langmuir isotherms, Brewster angle microscopy (BAM), polarization-modulation infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (PM-IRRAS), and grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) measurements. (3) Results: Licofelone caused the expansion of the DPPC isotherm without changing the lipid phase transition profile. Moreover, licofelone induced the reduction of DPPC packing density, while increasing the local order of the DPPC acyl chains. (4) Conclusions: The licofelone-induced alterations in the structural organization of phosphatidylcholine monolayers may be related to its pharmacological actions. Thus, the combination of studying drug-membrane interactions with the pharmacological characterization that occurs in the preclinical stage may gather additional information about the mechanisms of action and toxicity of drug candidates. Ultimately, the addition of this innovative step shall improve the success rate of drug development.

Abstract
Amino acids including the Fmoc group (9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) are bioinspired molecules that display intriguing features in self-assembly and biological applications. The influence of a delicate chemical modification between Fmoc-F and Fmoc-Y on the interaction with a phospholipid surface was analyzed. Langmuir monolayers of the 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate (DMPA) phospholipid were used to mimic the eukaryotic cell membrane. In situ Brewster angle microscopy and UV-vis reflection spectroscopy provided insights on the effect of the Fmoc-amino acid derivatives on the DMPA phospholipid. The formation of H-bonds between the Fmoc-Y and the DMPA molecules was assessed, demonstrating the crucial role of the hydroxyl group of Fmoc-Y in enhancing the interaction with biosurfaces. A modest chemical modification of the Fmoc-amino acids led to enhanced interaction with a model surface for biomembrane.![]()

Abstract
Fluorescent inorganic quantum dots are highly promising for biomedical applications as sensing and imaging agents. However, the low internalization of the quantum dots, as well as for most of the nanoparticles, by living cells is a critical issue which should be solved for success in translational research. In order to increase the internalization rate of inorganic CdSe/ZnS quantum dots, they were functionalized with a fluorinated organic ligand. The fluorinated quantum dots displayed an enhanced surface activity, leading to a significant cell uptake as demonstrated by in vitro experiments with HeLa cells. We combined the experimental and computational results of Langmuir monolayers of the DPPC phospholipid as a model cell membrane with in vitro experiments for analyzing the mechanism of internalization of the fluorinated CdSe/ZnS quantum dots. Surface pressure-molecular area isotherms suggested that the physical state of the DPPC molecules was greatly affected by the quantum dots. UV-vis reflection spectroscopy and Brewster Angle Microscopy as in situ experimental techniques further confirmed the significant surface concentration of quantum dots. The disruption of the ordering of the DPPC molecules was assessed. Computer simulations offered detailed insights in the interaction between the quantum dots and the phospholipid, pointing to a significant modification of the physical state of the hydrophobic region of the phospholipid molecules. This phenomenon appeared as the most relevant step in the internalization mechanism of the fluorinated quantum dots by cells. Thus, this work sheds light on the role of fluorine on the surface of inorganic nanoparticles for enhancing their cellular uptake.

Oral administration of edelfosine encapsulated lipid nanoparticles causes regression of lung metastases in pre-clinical models of osteosarcoma. Cancer Lett 2018; 430:193-200.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most frequent paediatric bone cancer, responsible for 9% of all cancer-related deaths in children. In this paper, a new strategy based on delivering edelfosine (ET) in lipid nanoparticles (LN) was explored in order to target the primary tumour and eliminate metastases. The in vitro and in vivo efficacy of the free drug, drug loaded into lipid nanoparticles (ET-LN) and doxorubicin (DOX) against osteosarcoma (OS) cells was analysed. ET and ET-LN decreased the growth of OS cells in vitro in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Interestingly, the uptake of ET and ET-LN was lower when OS cells were pre-treated with DOX. In vivo studies revealed that ET and ET-LN slowed down the primary tumour growth in two OS models. However, the combination of both drugs showed no additional anti-tumour effect. Importantly, ET-LN successfully prevented the metastatic spread of OS cells from the primary tumour to the lungs. On the whole, ET-LN are a promising candidate for OS chemotherapy.
