Milk sphingomyelin (milk-SM), as a key component of MFGM, contributes to the stability of milk fat emulsions. Milk-SM and other sphingolipids, like glycosphingolipids (GSL), coexist in the same outer bilayer of MFGM, suggesting significant role of their interaction in shaping the structural properties and functions of MFGM. In this study, using an <em>in-vitro</em> model membrane system, we investigated the impact of various GSLs, including cerebrosides and gangliosides, on the lateral segregation and phase behavior of milk-SM in 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-<em>sn</em>-glycero-3-phosphocholine bilayers. We also incorporated N-palmitoyl-D-erythro-ceramide for a comparative analysis of the impacts of sphingolipid head groups. The lateral segregation of sphingolipid gel phases was assessed using <em>trans</em>-parinaric acid (tPA) fluorescence lifetime analysis, and their thermostability was examined using steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of tPA. Additionally, we assessed the binary interactions between milk-SM and GSLs using the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH). The results indicate that GSLs promote the lateral segregation and stabilization of milk-SM-rich gel phases in the membrane bilayers. The size of the GSL head groups significantly influenced the degree of this stabilization, with larger head groups demonstrating diminished interactions with milk-SM. Our results provide valuable insights into the role of various sphingolipid structures in membrane phase behavior and organization. Comprehensive understanding of the interactions of these important sphingolipids in MFGM environment is crucial due to their structural and functional importance in dairy and nutritional applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":275,"journal":{"name":"Chemistry and Physics of Lipids","volume":"271 ","pages":"Article 105526"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144657994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, the area compressibility modulus of the GUV membranes was evaluated, showing that GrA incorporation led to alterations in membrane elasticity.

ASX is capable of reaching both membrane surfaces, one at a time. The ASX molecules form an approximate angle of 20º with respect to the membrane perpendicular and it is inserted between the phospholipid hydrocarbon chains, increasing slightly the membrane fluidity. ASX is readily miscible with membrane phospholipids and its location within the membrane is suited for its potent antioxidant activity.

This paper aims to review the main molecular mechanisms by which bile acids (BA) modify the composition of the intestinal microbiota and bacterial viability, with special emphasis on the effect on LAB. The results discussed here suggest that the BA disorganize the structure of the bacterial cell wall, modify their surface properties, their adhesion capacity and compromise the integrity of the membranes, with loss of essential ions and nutrients. They then enter the cell interior, at rates that depend on their hydrobicity. There, they dissociate, causing intracellular acidification and dissipation of membrane potential. This leads to a deficiency in the biological energy needed for critical processes, leading to cell death at high concentrations. In addition, BA causes alteration and oxidation of proteins and nucleic acids. The extent of damage caused by BA is influenced by their structure, physicochemical properties—particularly hydrophobicity—and concentration. The response of LAB depends on both their intrinsic and adaptive mechanisms.

To reach this goal, the toxicity of hinokitiol was evaluated using keratinocyte and fibroblast cell lines, and studies were performed on lipid monolayers (both one component and mixed systems). During investigations the surface pressure - area measurements, penetration studies and Brewster angle microscopy experiments were done. The analysis of the parameters calculated from the experimental data and the comparison of BAM images evidenced that, at membrane – related surface pressure, hinokitiol does not insert into model keratinocyte and fibroblast membranes and its impact on these systems is very weak. This important conclusion correlates with the <em>in vitro</em> experiments. The results for one component systems evidenced that the effect of hinokitiol on mammalian lipid films depends on the monolayer organisation and the lipid structure (especially the lipid polar head). In consequence, the type and proportion of lipids determines the effect of hinokitiol on the mixed films. The latter corroborates with the differences in the influence of hinokitiol on bacteria compared to mammalian lipids. It was concluded that hinokitiol exhibits selective activity toward bacterial cells compared to mammalian cells and their corresponding model membranes.

In the fractions obtained, the total amount of protein, cholesterol, and free thiols was evaluated using spectrophotometry.
