Membrane‐Mediated Force Transduction Drives Stick‐Slip Motion of Lipid Vesicles
A rotating magnetic field actuates a ferromagnetic particle inside a lipid vesicle, generating internal flows that induce stick‐slip propulsion near a surface. Membrane properties—elasticity, excess area, and phase behavior—modulate this motion by shaping stress dissipation and force transduction.

Bioinspired vesicles are emerging as programmable nanoreactors for photocatalytic applications. This review covers the recent advances in artificial vesicles, including liposomes, polymersomes, proteinosomes, and hybrid vesicles, for compartmentalized photocatalysis, comparing their properties and assembly routes, showing how their properties affect ...

Design of a Trigger‐Responsive Photothermal Vesicle‐Based Cargo Delivery Platform
Drug delivery is reimagined with a vesicle platform that responds only to light. Gold nanorods are anchored to giant unilamellar vesicles through cholesterol, and tuning the cholesterol concentration ensures optimal attachment and efficient release. Upon near‐infrared light stimulation, antibiotic cargo deploys on demand to inhibit bacterial growth ...

Lipidome Plasticity Preserves Membrane Function in Sphingolipid‐Depleted HAP1 Cells
Near‐haploid HAP1‐SPT cells, which cannot synthesize sphingolipids de novo, undergo a drastic reduction in sphingolipid content when grown under low FBS conditions. To compensate, they remodel their lipidome by increasing ether‐linked phospholipids and adjusting glycerophospholipid saturation.

ABSTRACT Autophagy is a critical adaptive mechanism in tumor cells that promotes survival under stress, but when dysregulated, it may trigger programmed cell death. The pentacyclic triterpenoids betulinic acid (BA) and ursolic acid (UA) are structurally related compounds that modulate autophagy; however, comparative insights into their effects on ...

Flippase‐Mediated Hybrid Vesicle Division
The successful reconstitution of Drs2p–Cdc50p flippase in small and giant polymer lipid hybrid vesicles is illustrated. The hybrid vesicles show adenosine 5′‐triphosphate consumption and flipping of 2‐dioleoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐phospho‐l‐serine lipids from the inner to the outer leaflet.

Abstract Cellular membranes provide a unique platform for interactions that drive emergent behaviors in protein dynamics and cellular signaling, distinct from those observed in solution. We investigated the proline‐rich region (PRR) and Src Homology 3 (SH3) domains of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and its phase separation driven by the weak ...
