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 ...

Repeat Expansions in PLIN4 Cause Autosomal Dominant Vacuolar Myopathy With Sarcolemmal Features

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective We aim to describe and characterize two unrelated Spanish families suffering from an autosomal dominant autophagic vacuolar myopathy caused by repeat expansions in PLIN4. Methods We evaluated the clinical phenotype and muscle imaging, and performed a genetic workup that included exome sequencing, muscle RNAseq, and long‐read genome ...

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.

The Potential for Extracellular Vesicles in Nanomedicine: A Review of Recent Advancements and Challenges Ahead

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play a dual role in diagnostics and therapeutics, offering innovative solutions for treating cancer, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative, and orthopedic diseases. This review highlights EVs’ potential to revolutionize personalized medicine through specific applications in disease detection and treatment.

Anomalous diffusion of phospholipids and cholesterols in a lipid bilayer and its origins

open access: yes, 2012
Combining extensive molecular dynamics simulations of lipid bilayer systems of varying chemical composition with single-trajectory analyses we systematically elucidate the stochastic nature of the lipid motion. We observe subdiffusion over more than four

Lipid Clustering Correlates with Membrane Curvature as Revealed by Molecular Simulations of Complex Lipid Bilayers

open access: yesPLoS Comput. Biol., 2014
Cell membranes are complex multicomponent systems, which are highly heterogeneous in the lipid distribution and composition. To date, most molecular simulations have focussed on relatively simple lipid compositions, helping to inform our understanding of

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 ...

Rheological Behavior of a Dispersion of Small Lipid Bilayer Vesicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Rheological behavior of a dispersion of small nearly-unilamellar phospholipid bilayer vesicles has been investigated. We conducted steady-state shear experiments and linear viscoelastic experiments.
