Mechanics of large folds in thin interfacial films
A thin film at a liquid interface responds to uniaxial confinement by wrinkling and then by folding; its shape and energy have been computed exactly before self contact. Here, we address the mechanics of large folds, i.e.

What's New? Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a severe malignancy with few effective treatment options. While the mechanisms remain unclear, changes in lipid metabolism may fuel tumor growth and EOC progression, offering a possible path for new treatments.

The spatio-temporal organization of proteins and the associated morphological changes in membranes are of importance in cell signaling. Several mechanisms that promote the aggregation of proteins at low cell surface concentrations have been investigated ...

Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...

Diacetylene‐containing glycan mimetics cluster upon selective lectin binding in GUVs. Subsequent irradiation leads to the formation of fluorescent polymer clusters, while non‐clustered glycan mimetics remain unaffected in the membrane. ABSTRACT The glycocalyx, a dense layer of glycoproteins and glycolipids on eukaryotic cells, is essential for cellular

Several pathogens have been described to enter host cells via cholesterol-enriched membrane lipid raft microdomains. We found that disruption of lipid rafts by the cholesterol-extracting agent methyl-β-cyclodextrin or by the cholesterol-binding ...

Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptidomimetics
Singular macromolecular cationic, amphipathic cyclic peptidomimetics with poly(2‐oxazoline)s‐esque backbone structure that undergo self‐assembly in water to form uniform nanoparticles were developed. The cyclic peptidomimetics, which act on bacterial cell membranes, exhibit hydrophobic‐dependent antimicrobial activity and toxicity.

Nile Red‐loaded poly(solketal acrylate) nanoparticles enable fluorescence tracking and exhibit nontoxic profiles in retinal cells. Enhanced cellular uptake and deep retinal penetration after intravitreal injection highlight their excellent potential for targeted ocular drug delivery to the posterior segment of the eye.

Non-equilibrium raft-like membrane domains under continuous recycling
We present a model for the kinetics of spontaneous membrane domain (raft) assembly that includes the effect of membrane recycling ubiquitous in living cells.
