Spontaneous Expulsion of Giant Lipid Vesicles Induced by Laser Tweezers [PDF]

, 1996
Irradiation of a giant unilamellar lipid bilayer vesicle with a focused laser spot leads to a tense pressurized state which persists indefinitely after laser shutoff.

Membrane‐Mediated Force Transduction Drives Stick‐Slip Motion of Lipid Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
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.

Diphtheria toxin T-domain as a tool for inducing lipid vesicle fusion

Communications Chemistry
Membrane fusion is fundamental for many biological processes, including subcellular compartmentalization, cell growth, and exo- and endocytosis. It also plays a key role in the fabrication of artificial membrane structures, particularly vesicles. However,

Membrane Disintegration Caused by the Steroid Saponin Digitonin Is Related to the Presence of Cholesterol

Molecules, 2015
In the present investigation we studied the molecular mechanisms of the monodesmosidic saponin digitonin on natural and artificial membranes. We measured the hemolytic activity of digitonin on red blood cells (RBCs). Also different lipid membrane models (

Electroformation in a flow chamber with solution exchange as a means of preparation of flaccid giant vesicles

, 2008
A recently described technique (Estes and Mayer, Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1712 (2005) 152--160) for the preparation of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) in solutions with high ionic strength is examined.

Encapsulation of protein/DNA complexes into unilamellar liposomes via annexin-mediated membrane recruitment and sonication

Cell Reports: Methods
Summary: This paper reports an effective protocol to encapsulate native protein/DNA complexes into unilamellar vesicles composed of natural lipids without the use of organic solvents, in physiological buffers, and at low protein/DNA concentrations.

Advancing design strategies in smart stimulus‐responsive liposomes for drug release and nanomedicine

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of stimulus‐responsive liposomes designed for controlled drug release and nanomedicine. The innermost circle represents different liposomal structures, including unilamellar, multilamellar, and multivesicular liposomes. The middle layer illustrates the responsive phospholipid components.
