Significance of two transmembrane ion gradients for human erythrocyte volume stabilization.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Functional effectiveness of erythrocytes depends on their high deformability that allows them to pass through narrow tissue capillaries. The erythrocytes can deform easily due to discoid shape provided by the stabilization of an optimal cell volume at a ...

CO2 permeability of the rat erythrocyte membrane and its inhibition

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
We have studied the CO2 permeability of the erythrocyte membrane of the rat using a mass spectrometric method that employs 18 O-labelled CO2. The method yields, in addition, the intraerythrocytic carbonic anhydrase activity and the membrane HCO3 ...

Permeability of the liver cell membrane to quinolinate [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1977
Quinolinate was taken up by both rat and guinea-pig liver cells. Equilibrium was reached after approx. 20 min with rat cells, but guinea-pig cells had not achieved a steady state after 60 min. There was no evidence to suggest that quinolinate is rapidly metabolized by either species.

Diffusion in the Presence of Cells with Semi-permeable Membranes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics, 2020
We consider processes that coincide with a given diffusion process except on the boundaries of a finite collection of domains. The behavior on each of the boundaries is asymmetric: the process is much more likely to enter the interior of the domain than to enter the interior of its complement, with a small parameter controlling the trapping mechanism ...

Alcohol Diffusion in Alkali-Metal-Doped Polymeric Membranes for Using in Alkaline Direct Alcohol Fuel Cells

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
The alcohol permeability of anion exchange membranes is a crucial property when they are used as a solid electrolyte in alkaline direct alcohol fuel cells and electrolyzers.

Cellular EXchange Imaging (CEXI): Evaluation of a diffusion model including water exchange in cells using numerical phantoms of permeable spheres [PDF]

open access: yesMagn Reson Med. 2023; 1- 16, 2023
Purpose: Biophysical models of diffusion MRI have been developed to characterize microstructure in various tissues, but existing models are not suitable for tissue composed of permeable spherical cells. In this study we introduce Cellular Exchange Imaging (CEXI), a model tailored for permeable spherical cells, and compares its performance to a related ...

Donnan Potential across the Outer Membrane of Gram-Negative Bacteria and Its Effect on the Permeability of Antibiotics

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
The cell envelope structure of Gram-negative bacteria is unique, composed of two lipid bilayer membranes and an aqueous periplasmic space sandwiched in between.

Comparative study on cell membrane permeability of SDS and Triton X-100

open access: yesHe jishu, 2022
BackgroundSodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and polyethylene glycol octyl phenyl ether (Triton X-100) are commonly used for surfactants in the laboratory, which can dissolve lipids in the cell membrane, increase the permeability of cell membrane, and can ...

Inactivation Effect and Mechanism of Plasma Activated Water on Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue, 2023
In this study, the bactericidal effect and mechanism of plasma activated water (PAW) against Shewanella putrefaciens, a common microorganism found in aquatic products, were investigated by plate counting, fluorescence staining and scanning electron ...

Fusogenic structural changes in arenavirus glycoproteins are associated with viroporin activity.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2023
Many enveloped viruses enter host cells by fusing with acidic endosomes. The fusion activity of multiple viral envelope glycoproteins does not generally affect viral membrane permeability.
