  • Title: Further NMR-spectroscopic studies of interaction of phospholipid liposomes with methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) in dental adhesives.
    Author: Fujisawa S, Komoda Y.
    Journal: Dent Mater J; 1993 Jun; 12(1):69-74. PubMed ID: 8306608.
    Abstract:
    To determine how MDP interacts with liposomes, the chemical shifts of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC)/MDP and dilauroylphosphatidylethanolamine (DLEA)/cholesterol (CS)/MDP liposomes were studied by NMR spectroscopy using a D2O buffer solution at pH 7.0 as a model for biological membranes. Proton chemical shifts of MDP enhanced shielding in DPPC liposomes together with an increase in the mobility of DPPC. However, MDP signals were not observed in DLEA/CS liposomes due to saturation. It is known that an ionized chemical does not lead to increased permeability of cell membranes composed of a lipid bilayer. However, MDP, which is ionized at pH 7.0, had a large interaction with the liposome systems. This appeared to arise from hydrophobic interaction between deca methylene groups of MDP and acyl chains of phospholipid.
