Contribution of Membrane Vesicle to Reprogramming of Bacterial Membrane Fluidity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen capable of resisting environmental insults by applying various strategies, including regulating membrane fluidity and producing membrane vesicles (MVs).

Membrane fluidity homeostasis is required for tobramycin-enhanced biofilm in Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen, which causes chronic infections, especially in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients where it colonizes the lungs via the build-up of biofilms.

Plasma Membrane Fluidity: An Environment Thermal Detector in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2021
The lipid matrix in cell membranes is a dynamic, bidimensional array of amphipathic molecules exhibiting mesomorphism, which contributes to the membrane fluidity changes in response to temperature fluctuation.

Assessment of Membrane Fluidity Fluctuations during Cellular Development Reveals Time and Cell Type Specificity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Cell membrane is made up of a complex structure of lipids and proteins that diffuse laterally giving rise to what we call membrane fluidity. During cellular development, such as differentiation cell membranes undergo dramatic fluidity changes induced by ...

Flotillin-mediated membrane fluidity controls peptidoglycan synthesis and MreB movement

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The bacterial plasma membrane is an important cellular compartment. In recent years it has become obvious that protein complexes and lipids are not uniformly distributed within membranes.

Bicarbonate-Stimulated Membrane Reorganization in Stallion Spermatozoa

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Classical in vitro fertilization (IVF) is still poorly successful in horses. This lack of success is thought to be due primarily to inadequate capacitation of stallion spermatozoa under in vitro conditions.

Defining Lineage-Specific Membrane Fluidity Signatures that Regulate Adhesion Kinetics

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Cellular membrane fluidity is a critical modulator of cell adhesion and migration, prompting us to define the systematic landscape of lineage-specific cellular fluidity throughout differentiation.

Modulation of Cholesterol Pathways in Human Macrophages Infected by Clinical Isolates of Leishmania infantum

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
To increase our understanding of factors contributing to therapeutic failure (TF) in leishmaniasis, we have studied some plasma membrane features of host THP-1 cells infected with clinical isolates of Leishmania infantum from patients with leishmaniasis ...

Membrane Fluidity and Temperature Perception [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 1997
Plants are incapable of escaping from a changing environment. Therefore, they have developed sophisticated mechanisms for acclimation and survival under unfavorable conditions, such as unfavorable temperatures. Low temperatures induce a number of alterations in cellular components, including the extent of fatty acid unsaturation (Cossins, 1994), the ...

Assessing Membrane Fluidity and Visualizing Fluid Membrane Domains in Bacteria Using Fluorescent Membrane Dyes

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2018
Membrane fluidity is a key parameter of bacterial membranes that undergoes quick adaptation in response to environmental challenges and has recently emerged as an important factor in the antibacterial mechanism of membrane-targeting antibiotics.
