Amphotericin B release rate is the link between drug status in the liposomal bilayer and toxicity
2022, Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical SciencesCitation Excerpt :Toxicity of lipid formulations was also shown to depend on particle size and lamellarity [40–43], on the nature of and relative concentration of the sterol(s), and the drug-to-lipid ratios [44–46]. Studies on these parameters involved in vivo studies (mice or rats), in vitro cell lines [47,48] and surrogate toxicity testing systems like potassium release in erythrocytes [28,49], or artificial system models for toxicity [15,50]. While the effects of the lipids on toxicity may be partially derived from influencing the equilibria amongst different aggregate forms in the liposomes, this could also be related to liposome-cell (membrane), liposome-lipoprotein, and liposome-albumin interactions in vivo (affecting pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics).

2021, Spectrochimica Acta - Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular SpectroscopyCitation Excerpt :Lipidic bilayer structure as the structural basis for cell membrane has charged groups of different natures, like charged or zwitterionic lipid head-groups, water dipoles and dipolar lipid residues, not uniformly distributed through membrane [22]. In these lines, it was reported that egg lecithin has an important role as vehicles for delivery of drugs and molecules of biological interest to a desired site in the living organism as well as a membrane model for the study of lipid peroxidation [23–25]. Phosphatidylcholine has an important role in metabolic pathways with lipidic membranes acting as mediators, changes in membrane architecture and endothermic properties affecting biological functions that occur at the cellular membrane level [26–28].
NMR and ESR study of amphotericin B interactions with various binary phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylglycerol membranes
2017, International Journal of PharmaceuticsCitation Excerpt :In fact, the term liposomal vesicle is a very unprecise and coarse definition. The type of liposomal vehicle (Sculier et al., 1988) (chemical composition, charge, structure, and mode of preparation) can strongly modify the physicochemical, biological, and pharmacological properties of liposomes and thus of the carried drug. These aspects had been evoqued under the scope of solubilization, transfer of AMB from vesicle to cell membrane ability, and size of liposome-AMB preparations.
Spontaneous formation of vesicles
2006, Advances in Colloid and Interface ScienceCitation Excerpt :Due to the ability of embedding the drug into the inner part of liposomes, many drugs were better prepared. In the 1980s, investigations were focused on applications requiring injection of liposomes into the blood circulation, and liposomes delivery directly to the specific location [36–45]. When delivered systemically, liposomes are subjects to distribution by the circulatory system, and they are rapidly eliminated by the liver.
