  • Title: Application of 1H-n.m.r. to the design of liposomes for oral use. Synergistic activity of bile salts and pancreatic phospholipase A2 in the induced permeability of small unilamellar phospholipid vesicles.

    Journal: J Microencapsul; 1984; 1(2):113-22. PubMed ID: 6336520.
    Abstract:
    H-n.m.r. spectroscopy of small unilamellar phospholipid vesicles in the presence of the lanthanide probe ion Dy3+ has been used to study the permeability of these liposomes induced by the bile salts (glycocholate and glycodeoxycholate) and pancreatic phospholipase A2. A marked synergism is demonstrated in the combined effects of these digestive agents in producing permeability of the vesicles to Dy3+. Changes in the 1H-n.m.r. spectrum of the vesicular phospholipid head-groups before permeability is induced, indicate that the products of the enzymic hydrolysis (lyso lipids and fatty acids) and transmembrane lipid exchange are involved in the permeability mechanism. The results are discussed in terms of the advantages of the use of n.m.r. techniques in the future design of liposomes for oral use.
