Thermoresponsive Organic–Inorganic Hybrid Large‐Compound Vesicles

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2013
AbstractHerein, gelated thermoresponsive large‐compound vesicles (LCVs) are reported for the first time. The LCVs are prepared by self‐assembly of poly(ethylene oxide)‐block‐poly[N‐isopropylacrylamide‐random‐3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate] [PEO‐b‐P(NIPAM‐r‐TMPM)] in DMF‐water mixture.

A Topology Map for Novel Vesicle-Polymer Hybrid Architectures

Advanced Materials, 2000
The use of vesicles as templates for the polymerization of inserted monomers gives rise to novel vesicle-polymer hybrid morphologies where a polymer bead is phase-separated from the vesicle bilayer matrix. Complex vesicle-polymer architectures, such as the wrapped parachute morphologies shown in the Figure, are synthesized here and then examined using ...

Electrooptic Behavior and Structure of Novel Polymer−Vesicle Hybrids

Langmuir, 1999
It has been previously shown that polymerization of styrene in DODAB vesicles gives rise to the formation of unique parachute-like structures in which a polymer bead is confined to the bilayer at one pole of the vesicle. In this paper, quantitative data on the size and the shape of these hybrid particles and of the bare DODAB vesicles are obtained by ...

Hybrid Nanospheres and Vesicles Based on Pectin as Drug Carriers

Langmuir, 2009
A novel strategy was developed to prepare nanospheres and vesicles as drug carriers. The drug-loaded pectin nanospheres and vesicles were fabricated in aqueous media containing Ca2+ and CO3(2-) ions under very mild conditions, which did not involve any surfactant.

Macromolecule‐to‐Amphiphile Conversion Process of a Polyoxometalate–Polymer Hybrid and Assembled Hybrid Vesicles

Chemistry – A European Journal, 2012
AbstractWe report our findings on the macromolecule‐to‐amphiphile conversion process of a polyoxometalate–polymer hybrid and the assembled hybrid vesicles formed by aggregation of the hybrid amphiphile. The polyoxometalate–polymer hybrid is composed of a polyoxometalate (POM) cluster, which is covered by five tetrabutylammonium (Bu4N+) countercations ...

Hybrid vesicle and reaction-diffusion modeling with STEPS

2023
Abstract Vesicles carry out many essential functions within cells through the processes of endocytosis, exocytosis, and passive and active transport. This includes transporting and delivering molecules between different parts of the cell, and storing and releasing neurotransmitters in neurons.

Phospholipid–Block Copolymer Hybrid Vesicles with Lysosomal Escape Ability

Langmuir, 2018
The success of nanoparticulate formulations in drug delivery depends on various aspects including their toxicity, internalization, and intracellular location. Vesicular assemblies consisting of phospholipids and amphiphilic block copolymers are an emerging platform, which combines the benefits from liposomes and polymersomes while overcoming their ...

Hybridization by cosonication of pigeon erythrocyte membrane with exogenous lipid vesicles

The Journal of Membrane Biology, 1978
Concentrated mixtures of lipid vesicles and pigeon erythrocyte membrane were cosonicated in order to produce functional hybrid vesicles. From the properties of the resulting material, we conclude that hybrids were very probably formed. These properties were as follows: (i) The presence of membrane increased the sonic fragmentability of lipid vesicles ...

Magneto‐Thermal Release from Nanoscale Unilamellar Hybrid Vesicles

ChemNanoMat, 2016
AbstractHybrid vesicles of lipid and amphiphilic block copolymer combine the biological and functional versatility of lipid delivery systems with the mechanical stability and robustness of polymersomes. While studies of hybrid systems for ease of characterization have focused on giant vesicles, most encapsulation and release applications require ...
