We wish to disclose the first synthesis of 1-O-hexadecanoyl-2-O-((15-(dimethylarsinoyl)pentadecanoyl)oxy)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, which belongs to the group of arsenic-containing phosphatidylcholines (AsPCs), recently discovered in herring caviar. The synthesized product will serve as a model compound to study biological and toxicological properties of arsenolipids in food.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a natural hormone with many beneficial properties including an anticancer activity. Unfortunately, DHEA is unstable in the body and exhibits cytotoxicity against healthy cells. In this study, a series of new phosphocholines containing DHEA at sn-1 and/or sn-2 positions were prepared. Succinic acid was used as a linker between the active drug and sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. All the compounds were evaluated in vitro for their antiproliferative activities against four cell lines: Balb/3T3, HL-60, B16, and LNCaP. The results showed that phosphocholines with DHEA at sn-1 and/or sn-2 positions did not have cytotoxic effects on the normal cell line (Balb/3T3). Mixed-chain phospholipids with DHEA and fatty acid residues showed the highest activity against tumor cell lines. The most active compound, 11c, showed a moderate cytotoxic effect against the HL-60 and B16 cell lines.

The cytosolic (group IV) phospholipase A2 (cPLA2s) family contains six members. We have prepared recombinant proteins for human α, mouse β, human γ, human δ, human ε, and mouse ζ cPLA2s and have studied their interfacial kinetic and binding properties in vitro. Mouse cPLA2β action on phosphatidylcholine vesicles is activated by anionic phosphoinositides and cardiolipin but displays a requirement for Ca2+ only in the presence of cardiolipin. This activation pattern is explained by the effects of anionic phospholipids and Ca2+ on the interfacial binding of mouse cPLA2β and its C2 domain to vesicles. Ca2+-dependent binding of mouse cPLA 2β to cardiolipin-containing vesicles requires a patch of basic residues near the Ca2+-binding surface loops of the C2 domain, but binding to phosphoinositide-containing vesicles does not depend on any specific cluster of basic residues. Human cPLA2δ also displays Ca 2+- and cardiolipin-enhanced interfacial binding and activity. The lysophospholipase, phospholipase A1, and phospholipase A2 activities of the full set of mammalian cPLA2s were quantified. The relative level of these activities is very different among the isoforms, and human cPLA2δ stands out as having relatively high phospholipase A1 activity. We also tested the susceptibility of all cPLA 2 family members to a panel of previously reported inhibitors of human cPLA2α and analogs of these compounds. This led to the discovery of a potent and selective inhibitor of mouse cPLA2β. These in vitro studies help determine the regulation and function of the cPLA2 family members.
Lytic reactions of drugs with lipid membranes

Propranolol is shown to undergo lipidation reactions in three types of lipid membrane: (1) synthetic single-component glycerophospholipid liposomes; (2) liposomes formed from complex lipid mixtures extracted from E. coli or liver cells; and (3) in cellulo in Hep G2 cells. Fourteen different lipidated propranolol homologues were identified in extracts from Hep G2 cells cultured in a medium supplemented with propranolol. This isolation of lipidated drug molecules from liver cells demonstrates a new drug reactivity in living systems. Acyl transfer from lipids to the alcoholic group of propranolol was favoured over transfer to the secondary amine. Migration of acyl groups from the alcohol to the amine was diminished. Other drugs that were examined did not form detectable levels of lipidation products, but many of these drugs did affect the lysolipid levels in model membranes. The propensity for a compound to induce lysolipid formation in a model system was found to be a predictor for phospholipidosis activity in cellulo.

Lysosomal phospholipases play a critical role for degradation of cellular membranes after their lysosomal segregation. We investigated the regulation of lysosomal phospholipase A1 by cholesterol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and negatively-charged lipids in correlation with changes of biophysical properties of the membranes induced by these lipids. Lysosomal phospholipase A1 activity was determined towards phosphatidylcholine included in liposomes of variable composition using a whole-soluble lysosomal fraction of rat liver as enzymatic source. Phospholipase A1 activity was then related to membrane fluidity, lipid phase organization and membrane potential as determined by fluorescence depolarization of DPH, 31P NMR and capillary electrophoresis. Phospholipase A1 activity was markedly enhanced when the amount of negatively-charged lipids included in the vesicles was increased from 10 to around 30% of total phospholipids and the intensity of this effect depended on the nature of the acidic lipids used (ganglioside GM1 phosphatidylinositol ～ phosphatidylserine ～ phosphatidylglycerol ～ phosphatidylpropanol phosphatidic acid). For liposomes containing phosphatidylinositol, this increase of activity was not modified by the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine and enhanced by cholesterol only when the phosphatidylinositol content was lower than 18%. Our results, therefore show that both the surface-negative charge and the nature of the acidic lipid included in bilayers modulate the activity of phospholipase A1 towards phosphatidylcholine, while the change in lipid hydration or in fluidity of membrane are less critical. These observations may have physiological implications with respect to the rate of degradation of cellular membranes after their lysosomal segregation.

1-O-Acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and 1-O-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoric acid have been prepared selectively and with high yields from the corresponding diols, glycerophosphoryl choline and glycerol-3-phosphate. Starting from the diols, the activated tin ketals were prepared in 2-propanol by reaction with dialkyltin oxide. The intermediates were acylated in the same solvent with long-chain fatty acid chlorides, giving the corresponding 1-acyl-lyso- phospholipids in high yield and with complete regioselectivity. The catalytic nature of the tin-mediated acylation and the relevance of the solvent are discussed. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2006.

The synthesis of novel phosphatidylcholines with geranic and citronellic acids in sn-1 and sn-2 positions is described. The structured phospholipids were obtained in high yields (59-87%) and evaluated in vitro for their cytotoxic activity against several cancer cell lines of different origin: MV4-11, A-549, MCF-7, LOVO, LOVO/DX, HepG2 and also towards noncancer cell line BALB/3T3 (normal mice fibroblasts). The phosphatidylcholines modified with monoterpene acid showed a significantly higher antiproliferative activity than free monoterpene acids. The highest activity was observed for the terpene-phospholipids containing the isoprenoid acids in sn-1 position of phosphatidylcholine and palmitic acid in sn-2.

Phospholipids with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which are potential lipid prodrugs, were synthesised. CLA was obtained by the alkali-isomerisation of linoleic acid and was subsequently used in the synthesis of 1,2-di(conjugated)linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine in good (82%) yield. 1-Palmitoyl-2-(conjugated)linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine was obtained by a two-step synthesis in 87% yield. All the compounds were tested in an in vitro cytotoxicity assay against two human cancer cell lines, HL-60 and MCF-7, and a mouse fibroblast cell line, Balb/3T3. The free form of CLA exhibited the highest activity against all cancer cell lines. Results obtained for the Balb/3T3 line proved that phosphatidylcholine derivatives decreased the cytotoxic effect of CLA against healthy cell lines.
