Freeze-thaw cycles induce content exchange between cell-sized lipid vesicles
New Journal of Physics, 2018 Early protocells are commonly assumed to consist of an amphiphilic membrane enclosing an RNA-based self-replicating genetic system and a primitive metabolism without protein enzymes.

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Disease outbreaks and the associated reliance on antibiotics pose major constraints to the sustainability of modern aquaculture. As regulatory pressures increase and consumer demand shifts toward residue‐free production, diverse biological interventions are gaining prominence as viable alternatives to chemotherapeutics.

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 6, September 2026.ABSTRACT Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disorder marked by the immune‐mediated destruction of pancreatic β‐cells, resulting in insulin deficiency and dysregulated glucose control. Current therapies—such as insulin replacement and artificial pancreas systems—manage symptoms but fail to restore endogenous β‐cell function or halt disease ...

Compartmentalization and Transport in Synthetic Vesicles
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2016 Nano-scale vesicles have become a popular tool in life sciences. Besides liposomes that are generated from phospholipids of natural origin, polymersomes fabricated of synthetic block copolymers enjoy increasing popularity, as they represent more ...

Repurposing a Lipid Droplet‐Associated Algal Protein as a Biosensor for Phosphatidic Acid
Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.The DTH1 lipid binding domain (DTH1LBD) binds to lipid membranes containing phosphatidic acid (PA). Its N‐terminal amphipathic helices are sufficient for this association and, when labeled with solvatochromic fluorophores, can serve as in vitro PA biosensors.

Macrophage: Biological Functions, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.Macrophages are sentinel innate immune cells that arise from embryonic precursors and bone marrow monocytes, displaying a functional continuum that transcends the classical M1 (pro‐inflammatory)/M2 (anti‐inflammatory) dichotomy. Under homeostatic conditions, balanced M1/M2 polarization preserves tissue integrity by coordinating immune surveillance ...

Novel directions in molecular systems design: The case of light-transducing synthetic cells
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2017 Important progresses have been achieved in the past years in the field of bottom-up synthetic biology, especially aiming at constructing cell-like systems based on lipid vesicles (liposomes) entrapping both biomolecules or synthetic compounds.
