Abstract:
:In this paper we extend our previous experimental work on interaction between polyelectrolytes and liposomes. First, the adsorption of chitosan and alkylated chitosan (cationic polyelectrolytes) with different alkyl chain lengths on lipid membranes of liposomes is examined. The amount of both chitosans adsorbed remains the same even if more alkylated polysaccharide has to be added to get saturation if compared with unmodified chitosan. It is demonstrated that alkyl chains do not specifically interact with the lipid bilayer and that electrostatic interaction mechanism governs the chitosan adsorption. The difference observed between unmodified and alkylated chitosans behavior to reach the plateau can be interpreted in terms of a competition between electrostatic polyelectrolyte adsorption on lipid bilayer and hydrophobic autoassociation in solution (which depends on the alkyl chain length). Second, interaction of liposomes with hyaluronan (HA) and alkylated hyaluronan (anionic polyelectrolytes) is analyzed. The same types of results as discussed for chitosan are obtained, but in this case, autoassociation of alkylated HA only occurs in the presence of salt excess. Finally, a first positive layer of chitosan is adsorbed on the lipid membrane, followed by a second negative layer of HA at three different pHs. This kind of multilayer decoration allows the control of the net charge of the composite vesicles. A general conclusion is that whatever the pH and, consequently, the initial charge of the liposomes, chitosan adsorption gives positively charged composite systems, which upon addition of hyaluronan, give rise to negatively charged composite vesicles.
