摘要: Perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) are emerging persistent environmental contaminants that may be toxic to animals and humans. To gain fundamental insights into the mechanism of their toxicity, the interactions of phosphocholine (PC) liposomes as model membranes were studied with three types of PFCs, including perfluorooctanoic acid, perfluorooctane sulfonate, and perfluorohexanesulfonic acid potassium salt, together with three common surfactants: sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), and sodium 1-heptanesulfonate (SHS). The interactions were systematically characterized by zeta potential measurement, dynamic light scattering, negative-stain transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Unmodified liposomes, calcein-loaded liposomes, and Laurdan dye-embedded liposomes were all tested. By gradually increasing the temperature, the three PFCs and SHS decreased the leakage of calcein-loaded 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine liposomes, whereas SDS and CTAB increased the leakage. The PFCs that affected the lipid membranes stronger than SHS were attributable to their perfluoroalkyl carbon chains. Packing of the lipids was further studied using Laurdan dye as a probe. Calcein leakage tests also indicated that PFCs inhibited lipid membrane leakage induced by inorganic nanoparticles such as silica and gold nanoparticles. This study confirmed the similar effect of the PFCs as cholesterol in affecting membrane properties and would be helpful for understanding the interaction mechanism of PFCs and cell membranes.
