3. Two back-to-back layers of 3 types of lipid molecules Cholesterol and glycolipids scattered among a double row of phospholipid molecules

4. Integral Proteins versus Peripheral Proteins

5. Concentration gradient Electrical gradient

7. Few molecules cross membranes by passive diffusion. The bilayer is permeable to: Small hydrophobic molecules Small uncharged polar molecules The bilayer is impermeable to: Ions Large polar molecules THEREFORE, need membrane proteins to transport most molecules and all ions across biomembranes

8. Lipid Membrane Important for absorption of nutrients - excretion of wastes Nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules - oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, fatty acids, steroids, small alcohols, ammonia and fat-soluble vitamins (A, E, D and K) Membrane Channel Each membrane channel specific for particular ion (K+, Cl-, Na+ or Ca +2 ) Slower than diffusion through membrane but still 1 million K+ through a channel in one second Channels may be open all the time or gated (closed randomly or as ordered)

9. CARRIERS specific binding site for solute conformational change transport rate:10 2 -10 4 /s (slow!) CHANNELS selective in respect to size and charge when open, ions and H 2 O can slip through transport rate: 10 7 /s (fast!)

10. Substance binds to specific transporter protein (ex. Glucose & AAs) Transporter protein conformational change moves substance across cell membrane Facilitated diffusion occurs down concentration gradient only if no concentration difference exists, no net movement across membrane occurs Rate of movement depends upon steepness of concentration gradient number of transporter proteins (transport maximum)

11. Some drugs and compounds are too large and/or too polar to diffuse across a lipid membrane. These molecules enter cells by other means. Drugs transported by Facilitated diffusion AcidsBases PenicillinProcainamide PhenylbutazoneDopamine ProbenecidQuinine Salicylic acidQuaternary ammonium ions SulfisoxazoleMorphine AcetazolamideMecamylamine FurosemideThiamine Glucuronic acid conjugatesNeostigmine Tolazoline

12. Net movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water concentration to an area of lower water concentration diffusion through lipid bilayer Aquaporins (transmembrane proteins) that function as water channels Only occurs if membrane is permeable to water but not to certain solutes

13. Isotonic solution water concentration the same inside & outside of cell results in no net movement of water across cell membrane Hypotonic solution higher concentration of water outside of cell results in hemolysis Hypertonic solution lower concentration of water outside of cell causes crenation

14. Movement of polar or charged substances against their concentration gradient energy-requiring process energy from hydrolysis of ATP (primary active transport) energy stored in an ionic concentration gradient (secondary active transport) Exhibits transport maximums and saturation Na +, K +, H +, Ca +2, I - and Cl -

15. Transporter protein called a pump works against concentration gradient requires 40% of cellular ATP Na + /K + ATPase pump most common example all cells have 1000s of them maintains low concentration of Na + and a high concentration of K + in the cytosol operates continually Maintenance of osmotic pressure across membrane cells neither shrink nor swell due to osmosis & osmotic pressure sodium continually pumped out as if sodium could not enter the cell (factor in osmotic pressure of extracellular fluid) K + inside the cell contributes to osmotic pressure of cytosol

16. 3 Na + ions removed from cell as 2 K + ions brought into cell.

17. Lipid Diffusion Aqueous Diffusion Carrier Molecule Endocytosis and Exocytosis Lipid Solubility and Drugs more of the weak acid drug will be in the lipid soluble form at acid pH more of the weak base drug will be in the lipid soluble form at alkaline pH

18. 1. Water Solubility 2. Fat Solubility - Membranes are selectively permeable. In particular, the membranes favor the absorption of unionized particles (particles which have neither a positive nor a negative charge). 3. Membrane Transport

19. Determined by the drug's” Physicochemical properties Dosage forms (ex.: tablets, capsules, solutions), Formulation Drug plus other ingredients Route of administration Oral, buccal, sublingual, rectal, parenteral, topical, inhalational) Regardless of the route of administration, drugs must be in solution to be absorbed. Thus, solid forms (ex.: tablets) must be able to disintegrate and deaggregate.
