Understanding membrane pore-wetting in the membrane distillation of oil emulsions via molecular dynamics simulations

open access: yes, 2018
The escalating volume of oily wastewater, particularly produced water, necessitates efficient means of treatment for the recovery of both the water and oil constituents. Towards this end, membrane distillation (MD) is a promising candidate. Unfortunately,

Transport and sorting of membrane lipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The lipid composition of cellular membranes may seem unnecessarily complex. However, the lipid composition of each membrane is carefully regulated by local metabolism and specificity in transport, marking the functional significance for the cell.

The effect of changes in plasma membrane lipid composition on the heat sensitivity of Hepatoma tissue culture cells and selected plasma membrane enzymes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Hepatoma Tissue Culture (HTC) cells grown in the presence of 60µM arachidonic acid for 24, 36 and 48 hours became progressively more thermosensitive than control cells.

Mitochondrial Rab GAPs govern autophagosome biogenesis during mitophagy

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Damaged mitochondria can be selectively eliminated by mitophagy. Although two gene products mutated in Parkinson’s disease, PINK1, and Parkin have been found to play a central role in triggering mitophagy in mammals, how the pre-autophagosomal isolation ...

Membrane Vesicles as Drug Delivery Systems: Source, Preparation, Modification, Drug Loading, In Vivo Administration and Biodistribution, and Application in Various Diseases

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
Bioinspired (or biologically inspired) drug delivery systems (DDSs) have been intensively studied in the last decades. As bioinspired DDSs, membrane vesicles, including extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from eukaryotic cells, outer membrane vesicles (

Submerged hollow fibre membrane filtration with transverse and longitudinal vibrations

open access: yes, 2013
A comparative study of transverse and longitudinal vibrations of submerged hollow fibre membranes for fouling control was carried out in this paper. The same membrane module was adopted in the comparison, and the reactor geometry was identical.

Guidelines for plasma membrane protein detection by surface biotinylation

open access: yesMolecules and Cells
: Plasma membrane proteins are crucial for signal transduction, trafficking, and cell-cell interactions, all of which are vital for cell survival. These proteins, including G-protein coupled receptors, ion channels, transporters, and receptors, are key ...

Proof of concept of using a membrane-sensing peptide for sEVs affinity-based isolation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Introduction: One main limitation in biomarker studies using EVs is the lack of a suitable isolation method rendering high yield and purity samples in a quick and easily standardized procedure.
