Abstract
There is a growing awareness of the utility of lipid phase behavior data in studies of membrane-related phenomena. Such miscibility information is commonly reported in the form of temperature-composition (T-C) phase diagrams. The current index is a conduit to the relevant literature. It lists lipid phase diagrams, their components and conditions of measurement, and complete bibliographic information. The main focus of the index is on lipids of membrane origin where water is the dispersing medium. However, it also includes records on acylglycerols, fatty acids, cationic lipids, and detergent-containing systems. The miscibility of synthetic and natural lipids with other lipids, with water, and with biomolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, etc.) and non-biological materials (drugs, anesthetics, organic solvents, etc.) is within the purview of the index. There are 2188 phase diagram records in the index, the bulk (81%) of which refers to binary (two-component) T-C phase diagrams. The remainder is made up of more complex (ternary, quaternary) systems, pressure-T phase diagrams, and other more exotic miscibility studies. The index covers the period from 1965 through to July, 2001.

Abstract
The role of phospholipids in apoptosis signaling and the relationship between oxidation of phosphatidylserine and its redistribution in the plasma membrane were studied. A novel method for detection of site-specific phospholipid peroxidation based on the use of cis-parinaric acid as a reporter molecule metabolically integrated into membrane phospholipids in living cells was employed. When several tissue culture cell lines and different exogenous oxidants were used, the relationship between the oxidation of phosphatidylserine and apoptosis has been revealed. The plasma membrane was the preferred site of phosphatidylserine oxidation in cells. It was shown that selective oxidation of phosphatidylserine precedes its translocation from the inside to the outside surface of the plasma membrane during apoptosis. A model is proposed in which cytochrome c released from mitochondria by oxidative stress binds to phosphatidylserine located at the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane and induces its oxidation. Interaction of peroxidized phosphatidylserine with aminophospholipid translocase causes inhibition of the enzyme relevant to phosphatidylserine externalization.

Abstract
Quantitative assays of lipid peroxidation in intact, living cells are essential for evaluating oxidative damage from various sources and for testing the efficacy of antioxidant interventions. We report a novel method based on the use of cis-parinaric acid (PnA) as a reporter molecule for membrane lipid peroxidation in intact mammalian cells. Using four different cell lines (human leukemia HL-60, K562 and K/VP.5 cells, and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) fibroblasts), we developed a technique to metabolically integrate PnA into all major classes of membrane phospholipids, i.e., phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol and cardiolipin, that can be quantified by HPLC with fluorescence detection. Integrated PnA constituted less than 1% of lipid fatty acid residues, suggesting that membrane structure and characteristics were not significantly altered. Low concentrations (20-40 microM) of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) caused selective oxidation of PnA residues in phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine of K562 cells and K/VP.5 cells while cell viability was unaffected. At higher t-BuOOH concentrations (exceeding 100 microM), however, a progressive, random oxidation of all major phospholipid classes occurred and was accompanied by significant cell death. In HL-60 cells, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and cardiolipin were sensitive to low concentrations of t-BuOOH, while phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol were not affected. Phosphatidylinositol was the only phospholipid that responded to the low concentrations of t-BuOOH in CHO cells. At high t-BuOOH concentrations, again, all phospholipid classes underwent extensive oxidation. All phospholipids were nearly equally affected by peroxidation induced by a initiator of peroxyl radicals, 2,2'-azobis-(2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile) AMVN), in K562 cells. In gamma-irradiated (4-128 Gy) CHO cells, phosphatidylserine was the most affected phospholipid class (34% peroxidation) followed by phosphatidylinositol (24% peroxidation) while the other three phospholipid classes were apparently unaffected. Since loss of PnA fluorescence is a direct result of irreparable oxidative loss of its conjugated double bond system, the method described allows for selective and sensitive monitoring of oxidative stress in live cells without interference from cell repair mechanisms.

Abstract
Lipid domains that occur within biological of model membranes encompass a variety of structures with very different lifetimes. The separation of membrane lipids into compositional domains can be due to lateral phase separation, immiscibility within a single phase, or interaction of lipids with integral or peripheral proteins. Lipid domains can affect the extent and rate of reactions in the membrane and provide sites for the activity of specialized proteins. Domains are likely to be involved in the process of lipid sorting to various cellular membranes, as well as in other processes which involve membrane budding or invagination.

Abstract
The fluorescence decay of alkenylparinaroyl- and palmitoylparinaroyl glycerophosphocholines in vesicles of the unlabeled alkenyloleoyl and palmitoyloleoyl analogs was determined by multifrequency phase and modulation fluorometry. The measured phase angles and demodulations could be equally well fitted to a biexponential decay, as well as unimodal or bimodal continuous lifetime distributions. The latter model was applied to study the influence of cholesterol on parinaroyl phospholipid fluorescence in vesicles. The long-living component of a bimodal lifetime distribution was sensitive toward the presence of the sterol. Upon increasing cholesterol concentrations, its lifetime center increased and its distribution widths decreased. Lifetime distribution widths in vesicles of alkenyloleoyl- or palmitoyloleoyl-glycerophosphocholine (choline plasmalogen and phosphatidylcholine, respectively) were reduced by the sterol to the same extent. We interprete the sterol-induced lifetime distribution narrowing as an effect due to an increase of membrane homogeneity in cholesterol-phospholipid membranes.

Abstract
Partitioning of two parinaroyl phosphatidylethanolamines and two parinaroyl phosphatidylglycerols between solid and fluid phase phospholipids was examined. Fluorescence quantum yields and fluorescence polarization measurements were used to calculate Ks/fp, the solid to fluid partition coefficient of each probe (Sklar, L.A., Miljanich, G.P. and Dratz, E.A. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 1707-1716). In the immiscible mixture dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine and dilinoleylphosphatidylcholine, both 1-palmitoyl-2-trans-parinaroylphosphatidylethanolamine and 1-palmitoyl-2-transparinaroylphosphatidylglycerol partitioned preferentially into solid phase lipid with mean Ks/fp values (calculated from quantum yields) of 3.4 +/- 1.5 and 2.1 +/- 0.7, respectively. In contrast, 1-oleoyl-2-cis-parinaroylphosphatidylethanolamine and 1-oleoyl-2-cis-parinaroylphosphatidylglycerol partitioned preferentially into fluid phase lipid in the same model system with mean Ks/fp values (calculated from quantum yields) of 0.44 +/- 0.26 and 0.16 +/- 0.07, respectively. Fluorescence polarization data on the same four parinaroyl phospholipids in mixtures of solid-phase dimyristoylphosphatidyl ethanolamine and fluid-phase dilinoleoylphosphatidylglycerol were similar to those obtained in the immiscible phosphatidylcholine system, demonstrating that the partitioning of these probes is not strongly dependent on head group. Knowledge of the partition properties of these fluorescent probes is relevant to use of these probes in investigation of the phase behavior of Escherichia coli inner membrane lipids, since phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol species account for approximately 95% of these lipids.

Abstract
Dimethylsuberimidate was reacted with aqueous dispersions of dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine, dimyristoylphosphatidylethanolamine, dilauroylphosphatidylethanolamine, and dielaidoylphosphatidylethanolamine at pH 10 and at pH 8. The amount of amidine dimer formation was about four times greater above the gel-to-fluid phase transition of each lipid than below the transition. The transition temperature of each phosphatidylethanolamine, measured by steady-state fluorescence anisotropy of cis-parinaric acid, was lower at pH 10 than at pH 8 or in water. The ability of dimethylsuberimidate to discriminate between phosphatidylethanolamines in the fluid and gel phases should allow use of this reagent to identify phosphatidylethanolamine species within the gel or fluid lipid phase.

Abstract
A simple protocol employing lipid transfer proteins was developed to label human low density lipoprotein (LDL) in a controlled manner with parinaroyl and pyrenyl phosphatidylcholines. In order to study the lipid fluidity in the surface lipid layer of LDL, the temperature-dependence of both polarization (parinaroyl probes) and excimer to monomer (E/M) intensity ratio (pyrenyl probes) were analyzed. A series of pyrenyl phosphatidylcholines containing a pyrenyl fatty acid varying from 6 to 14 carbons in length at the sn-2 position were inserted into LDL to investigate the lateral distribution of different phosphatidylcholines in the lipoprotein surface at 37 degrees C. Both polarization and E/M vs. temperature plots displayed discontinuities in the region of 22-32 degrees C, which coincides with the melting of the neutral lipid core, indicating that the latter induces an ordered to more disordered phase transition in the surface lipid layer. Determination of the E/M intensity ratio as a function of pyrene lipid concentration in LDL showed a linear relationship for the pyrenyl hexanoate and octanoate species, whereas a slope discontinuity was observed for the lipids containing a longer pyrenyl chain. These data suggest that two lipid domains with distinct properties exist in the surface layer and secondly, pyrenyl lipids partition between these domains in a chainlength-dependent manner. This is consistent with measurement of the tryptophan to pyrene energy transfer efficiency vs. pyrenyl lipid concentration, which showed a biphasic relationship for the long-chain pyrenyl lipids. These measurements further indicate that two surface lipid domains correspond to the protein-lipid boundary and the bulk lipid phase, respectively. The fact that relatively small changes in chainlength have a marked influence on the partitioning of pyrenyl lipids between the boundary and the bulk phase suggests also that native phospholipid species may not be randomly distributed in the surface lipid layer of LDL.

Abstract
The potency of cholesterol to affect the acyl chain order and dynamics of cardiolipin membranes in the liquid-crystalline state was monitored by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy as well as excited-state lifetime measurements with cis- and trans-parinaric acids as probes. Up to a cholesterol mole fraction (mean chl) of congruent to 0.20, no measurable effect on any of the fluorescence parameters of either probe in cardiolipin bilayers was evidenced. This was in striking contrast to the situation in dioleoylphosphatidylcholine (DOPC), for which a cholesterol mole fraction of 0.20 corresponded to the half-maximal effect on the fluorescence parameters, reflecting the classical ordering effect of cholesterol observed in lecithin systems in the liquid-crystalline phase. Whereas in DOPC bilayers this order effect plateaued at mean chl = 0.50, in cardiolipins the increase in acyl chain order was observable up to a mole fraction as high as 0.80. This indicated that cardiolipins were able to incorporate about 4 mol of cholesterol/mol of cardiolipin (i.e., 1 mol of cholesterol per fatty acyl chain). Besides, 31P NMR spectra of multilamellar liposomes obtained from pure cardiolipins and cardiolipin--cholesterol mixtures evidenced a line shape characteristic of lamellar structures. These results clearly indicate that the presence of high levels of cardiolipins in inner mitochondrial membrane does not impede cholesterol uptake by these membranes. However, the absence of an effect of cholesterol in the physiological range of the cholesterol mole fraction (congruent to 0.20) would signify weaker sterol-cardiolipin interactions than with lecithins and in turn would explain the relative dearth of cholesterol in these membranes.

Abstract
We have synthesized 1-palmitoyl-2-pyrenedecanoyl-sn-glycero derivatives of 3-phosphatidylcholine, 3-phosphatidylethanolamine, 3-phosphatidylserine, 3-phosphatidylglycerol, 3-phosphatidylinositol, and 3-phosphatidic acid and investigated their behavior in monolayers and in neat and mixed bilayers. Fluorescence spectroscopy of neat pyrene phospholipid dispersions revealed a well-defined thermotropic transition at 13.5-19 degrees C depending on the polar head group. An endotherm coinciding with this transition was observed with differential scanning calorimetry, indicating it to be due to the melting of the lipid acyl chains. For pyrenephosphatidylethanolamine, the endotherm was observed at a much higher temperature (70 degrees C). Compression isotherms obtained at an argon/water interface revealed that the pyrene moiety somewhat increases the mean molecular area of a phospholipid molecule but does not prevent the expression of head-group-dependent packing behavior. Partition of the pyrene lipids between coexisting fluid and solid phases was investigated with fluorometry and calorimetry. Both techniques indicate that these lipids prefer the fluid phase and that this preference is independent of the head group. The rates and apparent activation energies of lateral diffusion in fluid bilayers were found to be similar for most pyrene lipids, suggesting that the lateral movement of phospholipids is not critically dependent on interactions at the head-group level. Lateral distribution of the pyrene lipids in gel and fluid phosphatidylcholine bilayers was studied with the excimer technique and calorimetry. In gel-state dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers, the pyrene lipids form clusters. These clusters, however, do not consist of pure pyrene lipid but of aggregates (compounds) of the labeled and unlabeled lipid.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The steady state fluorescence anisotropy (rs) of 1-acyl-2-cis parinaroyl phosphatidylcholine (PnPC) was compared with that of diphenylhexatriene (DPH) in a variety of model- and biological membrane systems. The fluorescence anisotropy of both probes responded similarly to temperature changes and variations in the acyl chain composition in phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes. The presence of proteins and cholesterol increased rs for both DPH and PnPC in the biological membranes as compared to the isolated polar membrane lipids. Comparison of DPH and PnPC in dipalmitoyl-PC-liposomes with and without 50 mol% cholesterol, showed at temperatures above the phase transition of pure dipalmitoyl-PC the presence of cholesterol increased the rs-value for DPH strongly, whereas the rs-value for PnPC was much less affected. In the cholesterol-rich erythrocyte membrane as well as in microsomes from Morris hepatoma 7787, which have an increased cholesterol content as compared to normal rat liver microsomes, the rs of DPH was higher than that of PnPC. No large differences between the rs-values of both probes were evident in the normal cholesterol-poor rat liver microsomes. These effects are discussed in terms of structural differences between the probes and variation of cholesterol content. Alterations in the fatty acid composition of PC present in human erythrocyte membranes were introduced with the aid of a PC-specific transfer protein. Fluorescence anisotropy values of both probes hardly changed upon enrichment of the red cell membrane with either dipalmitoyl PC or 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonyl PC.
