Lipid peroxidation induces functional deterioration of cell membrane and induces cell death in extreme cases. These phenomena are known to be related generally to the change of physical properties of lipid membrane such as decreased lipid order or increased water penetration. Even though the electric property of lipid membrane is important, there has been no report about the change of electric properties after lipid peroxidation. Herein, we demonstrate the molecular energy band change in red blood cell membrane through peroxidation by air-based atmospheric pressure DBD plasma treatment. Ion-induced secondary electron emission coefficient (${\gamma}$ value) was measured by using home-made gamma-focused ion beam (${\gamma}$-FIB) system and electron energy band was calculated based on the quantum mechanical Auger neutralization theory. The oxidized lipids showed higher gamma values and lower electron work functions, which implies the change of surface charging or electrical conductance. This result suggests that modified electrical properties should play a role in cell signaling under oxidative stress.

The secondary effects of pencycuron on cell membrane of Rhizoctonia solani AG4 were investigated by the observation of giant protoplast formation and lipid peroxidation. Compared to protoplasts of R. solani R-C (sensitive strain) and Rh-131 (non-sensitive strain) increased in their size by 2.0-3.5 times 12 h after incubation in potato-dextrose broth containing novozyme (7 mg/$m\ell$) and $\beta$-glucuronidase ($60\mu\textrm{g}/$\textrm{ml}) with 0.6 M mannitol (pH 5.2). The increase of protoplast size in R-C was slightly inhibited from $13.8\textrm{mg}/\textrm{ml}$ without pencycuron to 10.3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with 1.0$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ of pencycuron. However, the size of giant protoplast of Rh-131 was not affected by the pencycuron treatment. Both strains R-C and Rh-131 did not exhibit the lipid peroxidation 12 h after the application of 1.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ pencycuron. The remarkable peroxidation of membrane lipid was observed only in R-C 24 h after pencycuron application, but not in Rh-131. Althought the inhibition of giant protoplast formation and the membrane lipid peroxidation were observed only in the sensitive strain R-C by pencycuron, it is difficult to conclude that these are the primary mechanism of pencycuron. The mild activity of pencycuron on the inhibition of giant protoplast formation and late membrane lipid peroxidation in the fungicide-sensitive strain did not noincid with the dramatic activity of pencycuron in R. solani. Therefore, our results suggest that inhibition of giant protoplast formation and membrane lipid peroxidation is the secondary effect of pencycuron.

Fluorescence probes located in different membrane regions were used to evaluate the effects of chlorpromazine HCl on structural parameters (transbilayer lateral mobility, annular lipid fluidity, protein distribution, and lipid bilayer thickness) of synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMVs) isolated from bovine cerebral cortex. The experimental procedure was based on the selective quenching of 1,3-di(1-pyrenyl)propane (Py-3-Py) by trinitrophenyl groups, radiationless energy transfer from the tryptophan of membrane proteins to Py-3-Py, and energy transfer from Py-3-Py monomers to 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid (ANS). In this study, chlorpromazine HCl decreased the lateral mobility of Py-3-Py in a concentration dependent-manner, showed a greater ordering effect on the inner monolayer than on the outer monolayer, decreased annular lipid fluidity in a dose dependent-manner, and contracted the membrane lipid bilayer. Furthermore, the drug was found to have a clustering effect on membrane proteins.

The objective of this study was to establish the optimal conditions for hypoosmotic swelling (HOS) test to assess the functional integrity of the membranes of boar fresh or frozen/thawed spermatozoa. When pooled semen sample was incubated for 30 min at $37^{\circ}C$ with different test solution of varied osmolarity, the highest percentage of HOS positive spermatozoa was observed in a 150 mOsmol fructose/Na-citrate solution (33.6%). Incubation time did not affect significantly the score of HOS positive spermatozoa observed in a 150 mOsmol fructose/Na-citrate solution at $37^{\circ}C$, but the osmolarity affected the score of HOS positive spermatozoa under the same condition above. Fresh semen was significantly better than frozen/thawed semen in semen parameters evaluated such as motility, viability, membrane integrity and lipid peroxidation (p<005). In the relationships of sperm parameters, motility vs viability, motility vs membrane integrity and viability vs membrane integrity were positively correlated ($0.82{\sim}0.94$) but lipid peroxidation vs other estimated factors was negatively correlated ($- 0.90{\sim}- 0.98$). Among the evaluation methods, motility vs Viability, motility vs membrane integrity and lipid peroxidation vs other estimated factors were significantly correlated (p<0.05). These results of this. study indicate that the optimal condition of HOST in boar spermatozoa is a 150 mOsmol fructose/Na-citrate solution for 30 min incubation at $37^{\circ}C$ and HOST can substitute the examination of motility, viability and lipid peroxidation.

The currently accepted model of membrane structure proposes a dynamic, asymmetric lipid matrix of phospholipids and cholesterol with globular proteins embedded across the membrane to various degrees. Most phospholipids are in the bilayer arrangement and also closely associated with integral membrane proteins or loosely associated with peripheral proteins. Biological functions of membrane, such as membrane-bound enzyme functions and transport systems, are influenced by the membrane physical properties, which are determined by fatty acid composition of phospholipids, polar head group composition and membrane cholesterol content. Polar and non-polar region of the phospholipid molecule can interact, with changes in the conformation of a membrane-associated protein altering either its catalytic activity or the protein's interaction with other membrane proteins. Mammalian dietary studies attempted to change the lipid composition of a few cell membranes have shown comparisons, using essential fatty acid-deficient diets. In recent years, Clandinin and a few other workers have pioneered the study proving the influence of dietary fat fed in a nutritionally complete diet on composition of phospholipid classes of cell membrane. Modulation caused by diet fat was rapid and reversible in phospholipid fatty acyl composition of membranes of cardiac mitochondria, liver cell, brain synaptosome and lymphocytes. These changes were at the same time, accompanied by variety of membrane associated functions controlled by membrane-bound enzymes, tranporter and receptor proteins. The findings suggest the basic concept of the necessity of dietary fatty acid balance if consistency of optimal membrane structural lipid composition is to be maintained, as well as the overall inadequacy of describing the nutritional-biochemical quality of a dietary fat solely by its content of linoleic acid. Furthermore, they give light on the possible application to clinical and preventive medicine.

The distribution of local anesthetics between the hydrocarbone interior and surface area of the lipid bilayer of liposomal membrane was calculated employeg fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence probe technique. The quenching of fluorescence of 12-(9-anthroyl) stearic acid and N-octadecyl naphthyl-2-amini-6-sulfonic acid by the local anesthetics in liposomal system was used to calculate the distribution. The Stern-Volmer equation was modified and employed for this calculation. The results showed that procaine hydrocloride and benzocaine were mainly distributed on the surface area of the lipid bilayer of the liposoal membrane, while tetracaine hydrochloride penetrated effectively into the hydrocarbon interior and showed even distribution in the lipid bilayer.

Fluorescent probe techniques were used to evaluate the effect of dibucaine.HCl on the physical properties (transbilayer asymmetric lateral mobility, annular lipid fluidity and protein distribution) of synaptosomal plasma membrane vesicles (SPMV) isolated from bovine cerebral cortex. An experimental procedure was used based on selective quenching of 1,3-di(l-pyrenyl)propane (Py-3-Py) by trinitrophenyl groups, and radiationless energy transfer from the tryptophans of membrane proteins to Py-3-Py. Dibucaine.HCl increased the bulk lateral mobility, and annular lipid fluidity in SPMV lipid bilayers, and had a greater fluidizing effect on the inner monolayer than the outer monolayer. The magnitude of increasing effect on annular lipid fluidity in SPMV lipid bilayer induced by dibucaine.HCl was significantly far greater than magnitude of increasing effect of the drug on the lateral mobility of bulk SPMV lipid bilayer. It also caused membrane proteins to cluster. These effects of dibucaine.HCl on neuronal membranes may be responsible for some, though not all, of the local anesthetic actions of dibucaine.HCl.

국소접착인산화효소(FAK)는 국소접착부에서 세포부착, 세포이동, 세포역학적 신호전달 등에 관여한다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 세포 외 기질(ECM)과 상호작용하는 인테그린 막단백질과 함께 위치하는 세포막 미세영역(membrane microdomain)의 종류와 ECM 구성에 따른 FAK 활성은 여전히 불분명하다. 형광 공명 에너지 전달(FRET)을 기반으로 유전적으로 인코딩 된 바이오센서는 세포 내 FAK 신호를 높은 시공간 해상도로 제공할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 유리, 제1형 콜라겐, 피브로넥틴, 라미닌의 ECM 조건에서 FRET 기반 막 표적 FAK 바이오센서를 사용하여 지질유동섬(Lipid raft) 및 비-지질유동섬(non-Lipid raft)에서 FAK의 활성을 분석하고 시각화 하였다. 흥미롭게도, 지질유동섬에서 라미닌 조건 하의 FAK 활성은 다른 ECM 조건보다 낮았고, 비-지질유동섬에서 FAK 활성은 다른 ECM 조건보다 낮았다. 동일한 ECM 조건 상의 비교에서는 피브로넥틴 조건일 때 지질유동섬에서 비-지질유동섬 보다 높은 FAK 활성이 관측되었다. 따라서 이번 연구는 FAK 활성도가 ECM 유형 및 세포막 미세영역에 따라 특이적으로 조절되는 것을 시각적, 정량적으로 보여준다.

The fourteen different electrodes coated with polymeric lipid membrane were evaluated to selectively monitor the sweet, salty, sour and bitter tastes, and umami. The polymeric lipid membrane consisted of the three components, or polymer matrix, plasticizer and electroactive material, the compositional ratio of which was 1:1.25:1. Herein, the 14 different electroactive materials were used. Sucrose, NaCl, citric acid, caffeine and MSG were used as standard materials of sweet, salty, sour and bitter tastes, and umami. The linear responses of each electrode regarding 5 tastes were analyzed by means of the correlation coefficient between electric potential difference and concentration of a taste material when the linearity was based on a linear model and a thermodynamic model, respectively. As fur salty taste, the electrode coated with valinomycin had a selective linearity at the significance level of 0.01. For monitoring sweet taste, the electrode with oleylamine and the electrode with the mixture of tai-n-octylmethylammonium chloride and dioctylphosphate (2:8) showed the significant linearities at the levels of 0.05 and 0.10, respectively.
