Construction and Design of giant Unilamellar vesicles [PDF]
, 2022 Construction and design of giant unilamellar vesicles Abstract Giant Unilamellar Vesicles (GUV’s) consist of a phospholipid membrane bilayer and an aqueous space in between the membrane. Vesicles play a fundamental role in many fields of science, this is

Facile Formation of Giant Elastin-like Polypeptide Vesicles as Synthetic Cells [PDF]
, 2021 vesicles that are more robust and stable were developed as a new chassis material for synthetic cells. Here we demonstrate the facile and robust generation of giant peptide vesicles made of elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) by using an emulsion transfer ...

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

Calcium/sodium exchange in purified secretory vesicles from bovine neurohypophyses [PDF]
, 1983 Purified secretory vesicles isolated from bovine neurohypophyses take up Na+ under the same circumstances where an efflux of Ca2+ takes place, suggesting a Na+/Ca2+ exchange. Potassium cannot substitute for Na+ in this process. Also, a Ca2+/Ca2+ exchange

Fusion of secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver [PDF]
, 1978 Secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver were found to fuse after exposure to Ca2+. Vescle fusion is characterized by the occurrence of twinned vesicles with a continuous cleavage plane between two vesicles in freeze-fracture electron microscopy.

Asymmetrical Polyhedral Configuration of Giant Vesicles Induced by Orderly Array of Encapsulated Colloidal Particles. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Giant vesicles (GVs) encapsulating colloidal particles by a specific volume fraction show a characteristic configuration under a hypertonic condition. Several flat faces were formed in GV membrane with orderly array of inner particles.
