Microstructure estimation from diffusion-MRI: Compartmentalized models in permeable cellular tissue [PDF]
Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) is used to characterize brain tissue microstructure employing tissue-specific biophysical models. A current limitation, however, is that most of the proposed models are based on the assumption of negligible water exchange between the intra- and extracellular compartments, which might not be valid ...

Lens Cell Membrane Permeability and Cataract Formation.
SummaryAnalyses of rat lenses just before and just after the appearance of diabetic or galactose cataracts demonstrate that this event is accompanied by an abrupt disruption of the cell membranes of the lens. The concentrations of polyol, glucose and fructose in the lens approach those in the blood; and the extracellular space as determined with ...

Role of the mitochondrial membrane permeability transition in cell death [PDF]
In recent years, the role of the mitochondria in both apoptotic and necrotic cell death has received considerable attention. An increase of mitochondrial membrane permeability is one of the key events in apoptotic or necrotic death, although the details of the mechanism involved remain to be elucidated.

Local Enhancement of lipid membrane permeability induced by irradiated gold nanoparticles [PDF]
Photothermal therapies are based on the optical excitation of plasmonic nanoparticles in the biological environment. The effects of the irradiation on the biological medium depend critically on the heat transfer process at the nanoparticle interface, on the temperature reached by the tissues as well as on the spatial extent of temperature gradients ...
