Formation of supported lipid bilayers by vesicle fusion: effect of deposition temperature.

open access: yesLangmuir, 2014
We have investigated the effect of deposition temperature on supported lipid bilayer formation via vesicle fusion. By using several complementary surface-sensitive techniques, we demonstrate that despite contradicting literature on the subject, high ...

Microrheology of Freestanding Lipid Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2010
The macroscopic material properties of cellular membranes, determined by the composition and interactions of their constituent lipids, are important factors in the structure and function of all living cells. Fluidity is a key material property of membranes, yet the underlying lipid bilayer viscosity and other rheological parameters remain poorly ...

Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Fast Membranes Hemifusion via Dewetting between Lipid Bilayers

open access: yes, 2014
The behavior of lipid bilayer is important to understand the functionality of cells like the trafficking of ions between cells. Standard procedures to explore the properties of lipid bilayer and hemifused states typically use either supported membranes ...

Antibiotic Loaded Phytosomes as a Way to Develop Innovative Lipid Formulations of Polyene Macrolides

open access: yesPharmaceutics
Background: The threat of antibiotic resistance of fungal pathogens and the high toxicity of the most effective drugs, polyene macrolides, force us to look for new ways to develop innovative antifungal formulations.

The interaction between amyloid-β peptides and anionic lipid membranes containing cholesterol and melatonin.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
One of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease is the formation of senile plaques, primarily consisting of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides. Peptide-membrane and peptide-lipid interactions are thought to be crucial in this process.

The effects of molecular and nanoscopic additives on phospholipid membranes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physics, 2023
Lipid bilayers—the main matrix of cell membranes—are a paradigm of soft molecular assemblies whose properties have been evolutionarily optimized to satisfy the functional requirements of cells.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Mimetics as Osteoinductive Mediators for Bone Healing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived nanoghosts (MSC‐NGs) mimic naturally secreted extracellular vesicles (MSC‐EVs) in structure and physicochemical properties but can be synthesized at more translatable yields. As osteogenic agents, MSC‐NGs demonstrate superior outcomes compared to MSC‐EVs.
