Leaflet Tensions Control the Spatio-Temporal Remodeling of Lipid Bilayers and Nanovesicles

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Biological and biomimetic membranes are based on lipid bilayers, which consist of two monolayers or leaflets. To avoid bilayer edges, which form when the hydrophobic core of such a bilayer is exposed to the surrounding aqueous solution, a single bilayer ...

Wetting and complex remodeling of membranes by biomolecular condensates

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Cells compartmentalize parts of their interiors into liquid-like condensates, which can be reconstituted in vitro. Although these condensates interact with membrane-bound organelles, their potential for membrane remodeling and the underlying mechanisms ...

A Versatile Method for Synthesis of Light-Activated, Magnet-Steerable Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Active Colloids

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
The immense potential of active colloids in practical applications and fundamental research calls for an efficient method to synthesize active colloids of high uniformity. Herein, a facile method is reported to synthesize uniform organic–inorganic hybrid

Aggregation effects on the magnetic properties of iron oxide colloids

open access: yesNanotechnology, 2019
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), and in particular iron oxide nanoparticles (mainly magnetite and maghemite), are being widely used in the form of aqueous colloids for biomedical applications. In such colloids, nanoparticles tend to form assemblies, either

Diffusiophoretic separation of colloids in microfluidic flows

open access: yes, 2020
In this review, we cover recent advances in microfluidic colloid separation enabled by diffusiophoresis. Diffusiophoresis describes the motion of colloidal particles induced by local chemical gradients.

Different pathways for engulfment and endocytosis of liquid droplets by nanovesicles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
In this work, the authors investigate on how condensate droplets, arising from liquid-liquid phase separation, can be engulfed by nanovesicles via distinct pathways, leading to different vesicle-droplet morphologies.

Metal-free photoanodes for C–H functionalization

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Organic semiconductors, such as carbon nitride, when employed as powders, show attractive photocatalytic properties, but their photoelectrochemical performance suffers from low charge transport capability, charge carrier recombination, and self-oxidation.

Interaction between charged anisotropic macromolecules: Application to rod-like polyelectrolytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this paper we propose a framework allowing to compute the effective interactions between two anisotropic macromolecules, thereby generalizing the DLVO theory to non spherical finite size colloids.

Colloid milium

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2013
Colloid milium is a rare cutaneous condition with at least three distinct subtypes, characterized clinically by the development of yellowish translucent papules or plaques on sun-exposed skin, and histologically by the presence of colloid in the dermal papillae.

Computational and experimental prediction of human C-type lectin receptor druggability

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Mammalian C-type lectin receptors are involved in many aspects of immune cell regulation such as pathogen recognition, clearance of apoptotic bodies and lymphocyte homing.
