A novel technique using hydrophilic polymers to promote axonal fusion
Neural Regeneration Research, 2016 The management of traumatic peripheral nerve injury remains a considerable concern for clinicians. With minimal innovations in surgical technique and a limited number of specialists trained to treat peripheral nerve injury, outcomes of surgical ...

A Martini coarse-grained model of the calcein fluorescent dye [PDF]
, 2019 Calcein leakage assays are a standard experimental set-up for probing the extent of damage induced by external agents on synthetic lipid vesicles. The fluorescence signal associated with calcein release from liposomes is the signature of vesicle disruption, transient pore formation or vesicle fusion.

Effect of Nanoparticle Rigidity on the Interaction of Stromal Membrane Particles with Leukemia Cells
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Cell membrane nanoparticles made with stromal cells are prepared and used to target leukemia cells. Deposition of the cell membrane onto rigid silica cores leads to increased uptake both in leukemia cell lines and primary cells from patients. These results show that nanoparticle rigidity affects the interaction between cell membrane nanoparticles and ...

Phospholipid - from Model Membrane to Industrial Application
CHIMIA, 1985 The phospholipid bilayer has been shown to be a fundamental, structural element of biological membranes. An attempt is made here to briefly summarize the main physico-chemical properties of phospholipids necessary to understand their functional role in ...

Perfluorooctanoic acid rigidifies a model lipid membrane
, 2014 We report a combined dynamic light scattering and neutron spin-echo (NSE) study on vesicles composed of the phospholipid 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine under the influence of varying amounts of perfluorooctanoic acid.

Reconstituting ring-rafts in bud-mimicking topography of model membranes. [PDF]
, 2014 During vesicular trafficking and release of enveloped viruses, the budding and fission processes dynamically remodel the donor cell membrane in a protein- or a lipid-mediated manner.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Engineered exosome‐based heavy atom‐free nanosensitizers are developed for safe and targeted sono‐photodynamic therapy of solid tumors. The IR820‐TPE‐loaded, biotin‐conjugated exosomes (IR820‐TPE@B‐Exo) demonstrate significant promise for NIR fluorescence imaging‐guided sono‐photodynamic cancer therapy.

Fusogenic properties of the ectodomains of hepatitis C virus envelope proteins [PDF]
, 2014 We have used an isolated chimeric protein E1340E2661 that includes the ectodomains of the envelope proteins of epatitis C virus to study its interaction with model membranes.
