The Influence of Oily Vehicle Composition and Vehicle-Membrane Interactions on the Diffusion of Model Permeants across Barrier Membranes [PDF]
In many instances, one or more components of a pharmaceutical or cosmetic formulation is an oil. The aims of this study were two-fold. First, to examine the potential of preferential uptake of one oily vehicle component over another into a model barrier ...

Microscopic simulation of membrane molecule diffusion on corralled membrane surfaces [PDF]
The current understanding of how receptors diffuse and cluster in the plasma membrane is limited. Data from single-particle tracking and laser tweezer experiments have suggested that membrane molecule diffusion is affected by the presence of barriers ...

The glomerular basement membrane as a barrier to albumin [PDF]
The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is the central, non-cellular layer of the glomerular filtration barrier that is situated between the two cellular components--fenestrated endothelial cells and interdigitated podocyte foot processes. The GBM is composed primarily of four types of extracellular matrix macromolecule--laminin-521, type IV collagen ...

TOPOLOGY AND BARRIER FUNCTION OF MEMBRANES IN THE LUNG [PDF]
The alveolo-capillary air-blood barrier of the lung is made of two thin cell layers, epithelium and endothelium, that limit the flow of solutes and fluid from blood plasma into the narrow interstitial space and into the very thin alveolar fluid lining associated with surfactant. The conditions for maintaining a thin dry air-blood barrier are discussed.

Long Prehensile Protrusions Can Facilitate Cancer Cell Invasion through the Basement Membrane
A basic process in cancer is the breaching of basement-membrane barriers to permit tissue invasion. Cancer cells can use proteases and physical mechanisms to produce initial holes in basement membranes, but how cells squeeze through this barrier into ...

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]
Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding
