Aqueous dispersions of DMPG in low salt contain leaky vesicles
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTDCLARE, 2012)
Aqueous dispersions of dimyristoyl phosphatidylglycerol (DMPG), at low ionic strength, display uncommon thermal behavior. Models for such behavior need to assign a form to the lipid aggregate. Although most studies accept ...
Effects of cholesterol on lipid vesicle fusion mediated by infectious salmon anaemia virus fusion peptides
(2022)
Studying the variables that affect the membrane fusion mechanism of enveloped viruses is important for developing new strategies to combat viral infections. We analysed the effects of lipid vesicle cholesterol content on ...
Chemical and morphological effects of the contraceptive hormone 17 α-ethynylestradiol on fluid lipid membranes
(2021-08-01)
The lack of studies involving the effects in human health associated with the chronic ingestion of pollutants lead to the path of investigating the action of these compounds in cell membrane models. We demonstrated the ...
Easy and Fast Preparation of Large and Giant Vesicles from Highly Confined Thin Lipid Films Deposited at the Air–Water Interface
(Springer New York LLC, 2018-03-31)
Lipid vesicles are supramolecular structures of great interest for industrial and research applications. They can be used simply to compartmentalize solutions and pack active molecules in femtoliter-scale volumes or as ...
Thermotropic Behavior of Lipid Mixtures Studied at the Level of Single Vesicles: Giant Unilamellar Vesicles and Two-Photon Excitation Fluorescence Microscopy
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc., 2003-07)
The aim of this chapter is to introduce an experimental approach that allows visualization of temperature-dependent lipid phase equilibria at the level of single vesicles, using two-photon fluorescence microscopy. Various ...
Cholesterol modulates curcumin partitioning and membrane effects
(2018-01-01)
Curcumin, a polyphenol molecule, presents a wide range of biological activities as antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and wound healing. Although some strengths attributed to curcumin derive from ...
Characterization of Yeast Extracellular Vesicles: Evidence for the Participation of Different Pathways of Cellular Traffic in Vesicle Biogenesis
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2010)
Background: Extracellular vesicles in yeast cells are involved in the molecular traffic across the cell wall. In yeast pathogens, these vesicles have been implicated in the transport of proteins, lipids, polysaccharide and ...
Interfacial concentrations of chloride and bromide and selectivity for ion exchange in vesicles prepared with dioctadecyldimethylammonium halides, lipids, and their mixtures
(2002-11-12)
The local concentrations of chloride, Cl b, and bromide, Br b, in the interface of vesicles prepared with dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride, DODAC, or bromide, DODAB, dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, DPPC, dimyristoylp ...

Self-assembled Amphotericin B Pharmacosome like Vesicles Derived from Lipid-based Microtubes: a Model Carrier to Further Explore
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2020-07)
Background: Self-assembled drug delivery systems are of much interest since they can be produced by simple low cost and solvent-free procedures. Pharmacosomes are supramolecular-structured nanocarriers with benefits for ...
