Abstract

Monoacylglycerol based lipids are highly important model membrane components and attractive candidates for drug encapsulation and as delivery agents. However, optimizing the properties of these lipids for applications requires a detailed understanding of the thermodynamic factors governing the self-assembled structures that they form. Here, we report on the effects of hydrostatic pressure, temperature, and water composition on the structural behavior and stability of inverse lyotropic liquid crystalline phases adopted by monolinolein (an unsaturated monoacylglycerol having cis-double bonds at carbon positions 9 and 12) under limited hydration conditions. Six pressure-temperature phase diagrams have been determined using small-angle X-ray diffraction at water contents between 15 wt % and 27 wt % water, in the range 10-40 °C and 1-3000 bar. The gyroid bicontinuous cubic (Q(II)(G)) phase is formed at low pressure and high temperatures, transforming to a fluid lamellar (L(α)) phase at high pressures and low temperature via a region of Q(II)(G)/L(α) coexistence. Pressure stabilizes the lamellar phase over the Q(II)(G) phase; at fixed pressure, increasing the water content causes the coexistence region to move to lower temperature. These trends are consistent throughout the hydration range studied. Moreover, at fixed temperature, increasing the water composition increases the pressure at which the Q(II)(G) to L(α) transition takes place. We discuss the qualitative effect of pressure, temperature, and water content on the stability of the Q(II)(G) phase.

摘要

基于单酰基甘油的脂质是非常重要的模型膜成分,也是药物包封和作为递送剂的有吸引力的候选物。然而,为了应用优化这些脂质的性质,需要详细了解控制它们形成的自组装结构的热力学因素。在这里,我们报告了静水压力、温度和水组成对在有限水合条件下采用单亚油酸甘油酯(具有顺式双键的不饱和单酰基甘油,双键位于碳 9 和 12 位)的反溶致液晶相的结构行为和稳定性的影响。在水含量为 15wt%至 27wt%之间、温度范围为 10-40°C 和 1-3000bar 的条件下,使用小角 X 射线衍射确定了六个压力-温度相图。在低压和高温下形成了向列双连续立方(Q(II)(G))相,通过 Q(II)(G)/L(α)共存区域在高压和低温下转变为流体层状(L(α))相。压力稳定了层状相对于 Q(II)(G)相;在固定压力下,增加水含量会使共存区域向更低温度移动。这些趋势在整个研究的水合范围内都是一致的。此外,在固定温度下,增加水组成会增加 Q(II)(G)到 L(α)转变发生的压力。我们讨论了压力、温度和水含量对 Q(II)(G)相稳定性的定性影响。
