Oseltamivir phosphate interaction with model membranes.
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta. Biomembranes 2024 January 10
Oseltamivir belongs to the neuraminidase inhibitors, developed against the influenza virus, and registered under the trademark Tamiflu. Despite its long-term acquaintance, there is limited information in the literature about its physicochemical and structural properties in a lipid-water system. We present an experimentally determined partition coefficient with structural information on the interaction of oseltamivir with the model membrane, its possible location, and its effect on the membrane thermodynamics. The hydrophobic part of the lipid bilayer is affected to a moderate extent, which was proved by slight changes in thermal and structural properties. Hereby, interaction of oseltamivir with the phospholipid bilayer induces concentration dependent decrease of lateral pressure in the bilayer acyl chain region. Oseltamivir charges the bilayer surface positively, which results in the zeta potential increase and changes in anisotropic properties studied by the polarised light microscopy. At the highest oseltamivir concentrations studied, the multilamellar structure is extensively disturbed, likely due to electrostatic repulsion between the adjacent bilayers.
