Physiochemical damage of egg phosphatidylcholine liposomes, caused by the salts of three bile acids, chenodeoxycholic acid, ursodeoxycholic acid, and cholic acid, has been investigated. Of the three bile salts, that of chenodeoxycholic acid was the most destructive, and the effect of the damage was examined by monitoring the induced 6-carboxyfluorescein release from the liposomes. For all three of the bile salts and under the experimental conditions, the minimum (effective) concentrations causing the 6-carboxyfluorescein release were below their critical micelle concentrations. In the case of the salt of chenodeoxycholic acid, the presence of cholesterol in the liposomal bilayers did not show any significant effect on the induced 6-carboxyfluorescein release, while, for the salts of ursodeoxycholic acid and cholic acid, the presence of cholesterol tended to depress the release. Permeation of bile salts into the membranes of liposomal bilayers made these membranes more fluid, and this fluidity was monitored by measuring the change in fluorescence polarization using 1,6-diphenylhexatriene entrapped in the liposomes. Coating the liposomes with polysaccharides, to make them more hydrophobic, led to their easier lysis by the bile salts.
