Piperidinium surfactants functionalized with carbamate fragment: Aggregation, antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2024; 1868:130562. [PMID: 38218459 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2024.130562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/15/2024]
Abstract
The biomimetic nature of supramolecular systems, the structural similarity of synthetic surfactants to biomolecules (lipids, proteins), provide them with high membranotropy, the ability to overcome biological barriers, and affinity towards biosubstances. Despite rather high toxicity cationic surfactants are of importance as antimicrobial agents, gene nanocarriers and mitochondria targeted ligands. To minimize this limitation, cationic amphiphilic matrix undergoes modification with various functional groups. In this work, new piperidinium cationic surfactants containing one or two carbamate fragments were prepared; their aggregation behavior was systematically studied by tensiometery, spectrophotometry and fluorimetry. The presence of a carbamate fragment leads to a 2-3-fold decrease in critical micelle concentration and to a significant increase in solubilization capacity compared to unsubstituted analogue. Evaluation of the antimicrobial effect showed that all compounds exhibit high bactericidal and fungicidal activity against a wide range of pathogenic microorganisms, including their resistant forms. Importantly, the introducing carbamate moiety allows of decreasing hemolytic activity of cationic surfactants. The data obtained make it possible to recommend carbamate piperidinium surfactants as effective biocompatible and biodegradable nanocontainers for hydrophobic probes with high antimicrobial effect and moderate hemolytic activity.

Mitochondria-Targeted Lipid Nanoparticles Loaded with Rotenone as a New Approach for the Treatment of Oncological Diseases. Molecules 2023; 28:7229.

Abstract
This research is based on the concept that mitochondria are a promising target for anticancer therapy, including thatassociated with the use of oxidative phosphorylation blockers (mitochondrial poisons). Liposomes based on L-α-phosphatidylcholine (PC) and cholesterol (Chol) modified with cationic surfactants with triphenylphosphonium (TPPB-n, where n = 10, 12, 14, and 16) and imidazolium (IA-n(OH), where n = 10, 12, 14, and 16) head groups were obtained. The physicochemical characteristics of liposomes at different surfactant/lipid molar ratios were determined by dynamic/electrophoretic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and spectrophotometry. The hydrodynamic diameter of all the systems was within 120 nm with a polydispersity index of no more than 0.24 even after 2 months of storage. It was shown that cationization of liposomes leads to an increase in the internalization of nanocontainers in pancreatic carcinoma (PANC-1) and duodenal adenocarcinoma (HuTu 80) cells compared with unmodified liposomes. Also, using confocal microscopy, it was shown that liposomes modified with TPPB-14 and IA-14(OH) statistically better colocalize with the mitochondria of tumor cells compared with unmodified ones. At the next stage, the mitochondrial poison rotenone (ROT) was loaded into cationic liposomes. It was shown that the optimal loading concentration of ROT is 0.1 mg/mL. The Korsmeyer-Peppas and Higuchi kinetic models were used to describe the release mechanism of ROT from liposomes in vitro. A significant reduction in the IC50 value for the modified liposomes compared with free ROT was shown and, importantly, a higher degree of selectivity for the HuTu 80 cell line compared with the normal cells (SI value is 307 and 113 for PC/Chol/TPPB-14/ROT and PC/Chol/IA-14(OH)/ROT, respectively) occurred. It was shown that the treatment of HuTu 80 cells with ROT-loaded cationic liposomal formulations leads to a dose-dependent decrease in the mitochondrial membrane potential.

Abstract
Inspired by the facial amphiphilic nature and antimicrobial efficacy of many antimicrobial peptides, this work reported facial amphiphilic bicyclic naphthoic acid derivatives with different ratios of charges to rings that were installed onto side chains of poly(glycidyl methacrylate). Six quaternary ammonium-charged (QAC) polymers were prepared to investigate the structure-activity relationship. These QAC polymers displayed potent antibacterial activity against various multi-drug resistant (MDR) gram-negative pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Acinetobacter baumannii. Polymers demonstrated low hemolysis and high antimicrobial selectivity. Additionally, they were able to eradicate established biofilms and kill metabolically inactive dormant cells. The membrane permeabilization and depolarization results indicated a mechanism of action through membrane disruption. Two lead polymers showed no resistance from MDR-P. aeruginosa and MDR-K. pneumoniae. These facial amphiphiles are potentially a new class of potent antimicrobial agents to tackle the antimicrobial resistance for both planktonic and biofilm-related infections.

Abstract
A synthesis procedure and aggregation properties of a new homologous series of dicationic gemini surfactants with a dodecane spacer and two carbamate fragments (N,N'-dialkyl-N,N'-bis(2-(ethylcarbamoyloxy)ethyl)-N,N'-dimethyldodecan-1,6-diammonium dibromide, n-12-n(Et), where n = 10, 12, 14) were comprehensively described. The critical micelle concentrations of gemini surfactants were obtained using tensiometry, conductometry, spectrophotometry, and fluorimetry. The thermodynamic parameters of adsorption and micellization, i.e., maximum surface excess (Гmax), the surface area per surfactant molecule (Amin), degree of counterion binding (β), and Gibbs free energy of micellization (∆Gmic), were calculated. Functional activity of the surfactants, including the solubilizing capacity toward Orange OT and indomethacin, incorporation into the lipid bilayer, minimum inhibitory concentration, and minimum bactericidal and fungicidal concentrations, was determined. Synthesized gemini surfactants were further used for the modification of liposomes dual-loaded with α-tocopherol and donepezil hydrochloride for intranasal treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The obtained liposomes have high stability (more than 5 months), a significant positive charge (approximately + 40 mV), and a high degree of encapsulation efficiency toward rhodamine B, α-tocopherol, and donepezil hydrochloride. Korsmeyer-Peppas, Higuchi, and first-order kinetic models were used to process the in vitro release curves of donepezil hydrochloride. Intranasal administration of liposomes loaded with α-tocopherol and donepezil hydrochloride for 21 days prevented memory impairment and decreased the number of Aβ plaques by 37.6%, 40.5%, and 72.6% in the entorhinal cortex, DG, and CA1 areas of the hippocampus of the brain of transgenic mice with Alzheimer's disease model (APP/PS1) compared with untreated animals.

Abstract
Novel cationic amphiphiles of the 3-alkyl-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide series bearing methoxyphenyl fragments (MPI-n) have been synthesized. Their aggregation properties in aqueous solutions, solubilization capacity, and hemolytic and antimicrobial activities have been investigated by a number of physicochemical methods. Using tensiometry, conductometry, and fluorescence spectroscopy, it was shown that the MPI-n have lower CMCs than their nonfunctionalized counterparts. The unusual alkyl-chain-length-dependent morphology of aggregates is testified for this homological series. Amphiphiles with 12, 14, and 16 alkyl tails are characterized by the formation of micellar aggregates, while a surfactant with a decyl tail is characterized by the formation of larger aggregates with lower surface curvature. The MPI-10 aggregate morphology was rationalized in terms of the packing parameter consideration and was supported by size measurements and the fluorescence probe techniques, which showed that vesicle-like aggregates in close-packing mode probably occur. MPI-n aggregates have exhibited a high solubilization capacity toward hydrophobic azo dye Orange OT. Importantly, amphiphiles studied showed (i) high bacteriostatic activity at the level of ciprofloxacin; (ii) high bactericidal action against all Gram-positive bacteria, including methicillin-resistant strains; (iii) bactericidal properties against Gram-negative bacteria; and (iv) low hemolytic activity.
