Electroformation of giant unilamellar vesicles from large liposomes [PDF]

The European Physical Journal Special Topics
AbstractGiant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are widely used as model systems for biological membranes to study membrane-related processes in a precisely controlled in vitro environment, owing to their biophysical properties. The classical technique for the formation of giant liposomes starts with the dissolution of lipids or lipid mixtures in an organic ...

Wireless Bioelectronic Modulation of Membrane Potential in Glioblastoma Using Carbon Nanotube Porins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A schematic illustrating glioblastoma cell membrane modulation using carbon nanotube porins (CNTPs) and an applied voltage. CNTPs enable ion flux leading to changes in membrane potential. This figure summarizes the concept of bioelectronic control of cell membrane voltage.

Rewiring Droplet Interface Synapses

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Droplet interface synapses are used to create a neuromorphic network. Voltage pulses draw the droplets into contact and enable rewiring of the network through electrowetting. Results show that the heterogeneous droplet compositions and pore‐forming molecules may be used to tune the neuromorphic properties of the device using trapped charge as a form of

Silibinin-Loaded Liposomes: The Influence of Modifications on Physicochemical Characteristics, Stability, and Bioactivity Associated with Dermal Application

Pharmaceutics
Background/Objectives: The aims of the presented study were the development of four types of silibinin-loaded liposomes (multilamellar liposomes—MLVs, sonicated small unilamellar liposomes—SUVs, UV-irradiated liposomes, and lyophilized liposomes) and ...

Decoding the Pathophysiology of Autoimmune Diseases—Mechanism, Triggers, and Nanotherapeutics: A Review

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
This review highlights how autoimmune diseases arise from intertwined immunological, genetic, and environmental factors, emphasizing gut microbiota dysbiosis as a pivotal driver. It outlines emerging nanotechnology‐based strategies—such as liposomes, hydrogels, and polymeric nanoparticles—that enhance targeted drug delivery, minimize systemic toxicity,

Large unilamellar liposomes with low uptake into the reticuloendothelial system

FEBS Letters, 1987
Particulate drug carriers, including liposomes, are rapidly removed from blood by cells of the reticuloendothelial system (RES) with resulting adverse effects on this important host defense system. In order to overcome this and other major disadvantages of liposomes, we have altered liposome composition in an effort to achieve prolonged circulation ...

Advancing design strategies in smart stimulus‐responsive liposomes for drug release and nanomedicine

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of stimulus‐responsive liposomes designed for controlled drug release and nanomedicine. The innermost circle represents different liposomal structures, including unilamellar, multilamellar, and multivesicular liposomes. The middle layer illustrates the responsive phospholipid components.

Surfactant protein-A nanobody-conjugated liposomes loaded with methylprednisolone increase lung-targeting specificity and therapeutic effect for acute lung injury

Drug Delivery, 2017
The advent of nanomedicine requires novel delivery vehicles to actively target their site of action. Here, we demonstrate the development of lung-targeting drug-loaded liposomes and their efficacy, specificity and safety.

Bottom‐up Strategies for Generating Polymer Protocells That Mimic Cellular Communication

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This review focuses on polymeric protocells produced using a bottom‐up approach. Polymer‐based assemblies guarantee stability and designability by adjusting the properties of the amphiphilic copolymers used. The review covers protocell architectures, production, and their intra‐ and intercellular communication mechanisms.
