Extreme Deformability of Insect Cell Membranes Is Governed by Phospholipid Scrambling [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Organization of dynamic cellular structure is crucial for a variety of cellular functions. In this study, we report that Drosophila and Aedes have highly elastic cell membranes with extremely low membrane tension and high resistance to mechanical stress.

Stimulation of Erythrocyte Cell Membrane Scrambling by Methyldopa

open access: yesKidney and Blood Pressure Research, 2008
Methyldopa is used for treatment of hypertension in pregnancy. Side effects of methyldopa include anemia, which could result from decreased formation or accelerated death of circulating erythrocytes. Several drugs cause anemia by triggering of suicidal erythrocyte death or eryptosis, which is characterized by cell shrinkage and cell membrane scrambling,

Plasma Membrane Lipid Scrambling Causing Phosphatidylserine Exposure Negatively Regulates NK Cell Activation [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Immunology, 2021
One of the hallmarks of live cells is the asymmetric distribution of lipids across their plasma membrane. Changes in this asymmetry due to lipid "scrambling" result in phosphatidylserine exposure at the cell surface that is detected by annexin V staining.

Membrane Disorder and Phospholipid Scrambling in Electropermeabilized and Viable Cells

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Biomembranes, 2014
Membrane electropermeabilization relies on the transient permeabilization of the plasma membrane of cells submitted to electric pulses. This method is widely used in cell biology and medicine due to its efficiency to transfer molecules while limiting loss of cell viability.
