Studying Macromolecular Composition in Cell–Cell Interfaces Using 3D Membrane Reconstitution Systems
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A comprehensive understanding of the interactions between proteins, lipids and glycocalyx components at the immune synapse is still lacking. Here, an artificial and a semi‐artificial model contact system were established to reconstitute the cell‐cell contact in 3D. The model systems enable the examination of macromolecule enrichment or depletion at the

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The muscle capsule of Trichinella is a critical structure that impedes immune attacks and drug penetration, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying its formation remain poorly understood. Using a high‐quality super‐pangenome comprising 12 Trichinella species, we compared extensive genomic variations between encapsulating and non‐encapsulating ...

Giant organelle vesicles to uncover intracellular membrane mechanics and plasticity
Nature CommunicationsTools for accessing and studying organelles remain underdeveloped. Here, we present a method by which giant organelle vesicles (GOVs) are generated by submitting cells to a hypotonic medium followed by plasma membrane breakage.

The Influence of high pressure on the bending rigidity of model membranes [PDF]
, 2015 Curvature is a fundamental lipid membrane property that influences many membrane-mediated biological processes and dynamic soft materials. One of the key parameters that determines the energetics of curvature change is the membrane bending rigidity ...

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Biomimetic liposome nanoreactors mimicking natural light‐harvesting complexes enable efficient photooxidation of NADH. Membrane‐anchored fluorescein transfers energy via FRET to membrane anchored eosin Y, oxidizing NADH. While symmetric membranes show little improvement, asymmetric chromophore distribution enhances photooxidation rates by up to 27 ...

Interaction between catanionic vesicles and giant magnetic vesicles
Comptes Rendus. Chimie, 2008 Interactions between vesicles made of a sugar-derived tricatenar catanionic surfactant (TriCat), used as drug delivery vectors, and giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) encapsulating magnetic nanoparticles are investigated in order to understand the drug internalisation process.

Clinical periodontal diagnosis
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Periodontal diseases include pathological conditions elicited by the presence of bacterial biofilms leading to a host response. In the diagnostic process, clinical signs such as bleeding on probing, development of periodontal pockets and gingival recessions, furcation involvement and presence of radiographic bone loss should be assessed prior ...
