Liposomes encapsulating polymeric chitosan based vesicles - a vesicle in vesicle system for drug delivery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Drug delivery systems comprising vesicles prepared from one amphiphile encapsulating vesicles prepared from a second amphiphile have not been prepared previously due to a tendency of the bilayer components of the different vesicles to mix during ...

Single-molecule analysis of the entire perfringolysin O pore formation pathway

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The cholesterol-dependent cytolysin perfringolysin O (PFO) is secreted by Clostridium perfringens as a bacterial virulence factor able to form giant ring-shaped pores that perforate and ultimately lyse mammalian cell membranes. To resolve the kinetics of

Development of Artificial Cell Models Using Microfluidic Technology and Synthetic Biology

open access: yesMicromachines, 2020
Giant lipid vesicles or liposomes are primarily composed of phospholipids and form a lipid bilayer structurally similar to that of the cell membrane. These vesicles, like living cells, are 5–100 μm in diameter and can be easily observed using an optical ...

Synthesis of a high functionality and quality lipid with gp130 binding hydrophobic peptide for the preparation of human glioma cell-targeted PEGylated liposomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We developed high functionality and quality (HFQ) lipids for facile and rapid preparation of ligand-grafted PEGylated liposomes.Because HFQ lipids are designed to exhibit good water dispersibility, ligand-grafted PEGylated liposomes can be easily ...
