Photodimerisation of a styrylpyrazine amphiphile suppresses the release of glucose entrapped in its mixed vesicle with DPPC

Abstract: Photolysis of a styrylpyrazine amphiphile in the bilayer of a vesicle made from its mixture with DPPC, with irradiation above 300 nm, effectively suppressed the release of glucose entrapped in the vesicle, while the stilbene analogue induced a sudden perturbation to release the glucose under the same conditions.

“…Effective DDSs must be able to entrap the drug, to retain it without any leakage and to release it when the proper condition or environment is reached. In this context, many attempts have been made by designing liposomes and vesicles sensitive to a change in the surrounding conditions, such as pH,3–10 temperature,11–13 UV light14–16 and to the presence of specific molecules 17, 18. Especially, the pH‐sensitive liposomes and vesicles have been noteworthy as DDSs because the pH value around any damaged tissue is different from that around other normal tissues 19–23…”

“…Materials with such abilities are broadly termed smart materials or stimuli-responsive materials. 1Ϫ4 Materials that can respond to various types of stimulus such as mechanical stress, 5 temperature, 6,7 pH, 8Ϫ12 electric field, 13 magnetic field, 14 redox potentials, 15 light, 16,17 and certain chemicals 18,19 have been synthesized in the past. 18,19 Organic materials such as polyelectrolyte multilayers, 20 block copolymers, 21 phospholipids, 22 and gels 23 possess individual molecular components that can respond to an external stimulus by significantly altering their own physical or chemical properties.…”

“…35 Polymerisable lipids of the second kind are often unstable because the polymerised lipid tends to adopt a non-bilayer structure which leads to leakage of the liposome contents and (in some cases) liposome aggregation and fusion. 43, 44 This destabilisation opens challenging possibilities for photo-induced liposomal contents release and/or fusion.…”
