Hybrid Lipid-Polymer Bilayers: pH-Mediated Interactions between Hybrid Vesicles and Glass [PDF]
One practical approach towards robust and stable biomimetic platforms is to generate hybrid bilayers that incorporate both lipids and block co-polymer amphiphiles. The currently limited number of reports on the interaction of glass surfaces with hybrid lipid and polymer vesicles—DOPC mixed with amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide-b-butadiene) (PEO-PBd ...

Hybrid Vesicles Enable Mechano-Responsive Hydrogel Degradation. [PDF]
Abstract Stimuli‐responsive hydrogels are intriguing biomimetic materials. Previous efforts to develop mechano‐responsive hydrogels have mostly relied on chemical modifications of the hydrogel structures. Here, we present a simple, generalizable strategy that confers mechano‐responsive behavior on hydrogels.

Characterization of Gramicidin A in Triblock and Diblock Polymersomes and Hybrid Vesicles via Continuous Wave Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy [PDF]
Studying membrane proteins in a native environment is crucial to understanding their structural and/or functional studies. Often, widely accepted mimetic systems have limitations that prevent the study of some membrane proteins.

Optimization of Innovative Three-Dimensionally-Structured Hybrid Vesicles to Improve the Cutaneous Delivery of Clotrimazole for the Treatment of Topical Candidiasis [PDF]
New three-dimensionally-structured hybrid phospholipid vesicles, able to load clotrimazole in a high amount (10 mg/mL), were obtained for the first time in this work by significantly reducing the amount of water (≤10%), which was replaced with a ...

Light-Driven ATP Regeneration in Diblock/Grafted Hybrid Vesicles. [PDF]
AbstractLight‐driven ATP regeneration systems combining ATP synthase and bacteriorhodopsin have been proposed as an energy supply in the field of synthetic biology. Energy is required to power biochemical reactions within artificially created reaction compartments like protocells, which are typically based on either lipid or polymer membranes.

Lipid-polymer hybrid-vesicles interrupt nucleation of amyloid fibrillation. [PDF]
Hybrid-vesicles composed of amphiphilic polymers in POPC-lipids inhibit Aβ1–40 peptide fibrillation by interfering with primary and secondary nucleation, most pronounced by the cholesteryl-anchored polymers.
