Interactions of amphotericin B derivatives with lipid membranes - a molecular dynamics study
PublicationW pracy analizowano oddziaływanie dwóch nisko-toksycznych pochodnych amfoterycyny B (związki SAmE i PAmE) z modelami błon lipidowych. Badania wykonane zostały za pomocą dynamiki molekularnej. Modele błon oprócz fosfolipidów DMPC zawierały odpowiednio cholesterol (model błony zwierzęcej) lub ertosterol (model błony grzybowej). Analiza wyników wykazała, że obie pochodne amfoterycyny B zachowują się inaczej w błonie cholesterolowej...

Lipid oxidation and lysine availability in Atlantic mackerel hot smoked in mild conditions.
PublicationZawartość nadtlenków w wędzonych makrelach była o 50% mniejsza, a liczba anizydynowa 2,5 razy większa niż w surowych rybach. Przechowywanie ryb wędzonych w temp. +2C nie wpłynęło na zawartość produktów utlenienia lipidów. Zawartość dostępnej lizyny była podobna w surowych i wędzonych rybach. Skóra ryb wędzonych zawierała 2 razy więcej fenoli niż tkanka mięśniowa.

Lipid oxidation and lysine availability in smoked Atlantic mackerel fillets and Baltic sprats.
PublicationNie wykazano korelacji między stopniem utlenienia lipidów a ich zawartością w rozmrożonych filetach makreli. Gorące i zimne wędzenie nie wływało na liczbę nadtlenkową w mięsie filetów makreli, natomiast w mięsie wędzonych szprotów była ona znacznie mniejsza niż w rybach surowych. Wędzenie nie powodowało obniżenia dostępnej lizyny, chociaż liczba anizydynowa zwiększyła się dwukrotnie w wędzonych filetach makreli i czterokrotnie...

The Effect of Sterols on Amphotericin B Self-Aggregation in a Lipid Bilayer as Revealed by Free Energy Simulations
PublicationAmphotericin B (AmB) is an effective but toxic antifungal drug, known to increase the permeability of the cell membrane, presumably by assembling into transmembrane pores in a sterol-dependent manner. The aggregation of AmB molecules in a phospholipid bilayer is, thus, crucial for the drug’s activity. To provide an insight into the molecular nature of this process, here, we report an atomistic molecular dynamics simulation study...
