- Drug partitioning into lipid bilayers was studied by chromatography on liposomes and biomembranes immobilized in gel beads by freeze–thawing. The drug retention volume was expressed as a capacity factor, Ks, normalized with respect to the amount of immobilized phospholipid. Log Ks values for positively charged drugs on brain phosphatidylserine (PS)/egg phosphatidylcholine (PC) liposomes decreased as the ionic strength was increased, increased as the PS:PC ratio or the pH was increased and varied linearly with the temperature. Log Ks values for beta-blockers, phenothiazines and benzodiazepines on egg phospholipid (EPL) liposomes correlated well with corresponding values on red cell membrane lipid liposomes (r2=0.96), and on human red cell membrane vesicles containing transmembrane proteins (r2=0.96). A fair correlation was observed between the values on EPL liposomes and those on native membranes of adsorbed red cells (r2=0.86). Compared to the data obtained with liposomes, the retentions of hydrophilic drugs became larger and the range of log Ks values more narrow on the vesicles and the membranes, which expose hydrophilic protein surfaces and oligosaccharides. Lower correlations were observed between drug retention on EPL liposomes and egg PC liposomes; and between retention on liposomes (or vesicles) and immobilized artificial membrane (IAM) monolayers of PC analogues. Absorption of orally administered drugs in humans (literature data) was nearly complete for drugs of log Ks values in the interval 1.2–2.5 on vesicles. Both vesicles and liposomes can thus be used for chromatographic analysis of drug–membrane interaction and prediction of drug absorption.

- One of the main pathways for drug passage into cells is diffusion across the lipid bilayer ofthe cell membrane. A key factor in this process is the drug partitioning into the bilayer, whichcan be translated into a retention in a chromatographic system. Liposomes, proteoliposomesand cytoskeleton-depleted red cell membrane vesicles were therefore entrapped in gel beads tobe used as biomimetic models in drug partition chromatography. Red cells were adsorbed ongel particles for similar use as a stationary phase, whereby ghosts were formed. Each retentionvolume was divided by the amount of immobilized phospholipids, as determined byphosphorus analysis, to define a capacity factor (Ks). I verified that the chromatographicretention volumes were proportional to the amounts of immobilized phospholipids. The loss oflipids with time was small and allowed many series of runs. Short columns containing smallamounts of lipids allowed quick analysis of highly lipophilic drugs. The logarithm of Ksvalues for positively charged drugs on negatively charged liposomes decreased as the ionicstrength was increased, increased with increasing negative charge of the liposomes as the pHwas increased and varied linearly with the temperature. On red cells/ghosts the range of thelog Ks values was more narrow than on liposomes and vesicles. The log Ks values on neutralliposomes decreased with increasing cholesterol fraction and mostly increased as the temperature was increased. Insertion of transmembrane proteins into lipid bilayers changed the log Ksvalues for charged drugs, and in some cases also for neutral drugs. Comparison of log Ksvalues with values from the literature for octanol/water distribution ratios, apparent partitioning in liposome suspensions, retention on immobilized artificial membranes, calculateddynamic polar molecular surface areas, permeability values on cultured monolayers of Caco-2cells and absorption of orally administered drugs in humans showed different recti- or curvilinear correlations. The results obtained have shown that immobilized liposome or biomembrane chromatography is a reproducible, robust and simple method for characterization ofdrug partitioning. The method is applicable for drug screening.
