Lipid Bilayers (Lipid Bilayer)

04/17/2012 - "These findings on the kinetics of lipid bilayers rupture could be extended and applied to the study of other molecular thin films. "
01/01/2009 - "We focus mainly on studies involving supported lipid bilayers (SLBs), particularly formation by vesicle rupture on flat and corrugated surfaces, nucleation and growth of domains in phase-separated systems, anesthetic-lipid interactions, and protein/peptide interactions in multicomponent systems. "
09/29/2015 - "The formation of complete supported lipid bilayers by vesicle adsorption and rupture was studied in relation to deposition conditions of vesicles and underlying cushion formed from various polyelectrolytes. "
09/01/2015 - "In the presence of a finite membrane tension, we show that this small pore can act as a nucleation site for the stochastic rupture of the lipid bilayer, so as to create a much larger pore. "
02/03/2015 - "Supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) are often formed by spontaneous vesicle rupture and fusion on a solid surface. "

02/01/1977 - "The lipid bilayer of the rat liver and hepatoma plasma membranes was shown to be more saturated than that of the intracellular membranes."
05/01/2014 - "The purpose of this study is to prepare galactosyl modified lipid bilayer-coated mesoporous silica nanoparticles (GPEM) to enhance the antitumor efficacy against hepatocellular carcinoma cells. "
05/01/2011 - "The enormous capacity of the high-surface-area nanoporous core combined with the enhanced targeting efficacy enabled by the fluid supported lipid bilayer enable a single protocell loaded with a drug cocktail to kill a drug-resistant human hepatocellular carcinoma cell, representing a 10(6)-fold improvement over comparable liposomes."
03/01/1985 - "These results suggested that the lipid bilayer in PM of hyperplastic nodules has characteristics roughly intermediate between those of hepatoma and liver PM's, although the molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid-P in hyperplastic nodules PM was not intermediate."
01/01/1984 - "From diphenylhexatriene fluorescence depolarization measurements it appears that the changes in lipid composition cause an increase in the order of the lipid bilayer on going from the control to hepatoma 9618A and 3924A microsomes, while fluidity is virtually unchanged. "

04/01/2014 - "The discovery that palmitoylethanolamide, a member of the N-acylethanolamine family which is produced from the lipid bilayer on-demand, is capable of exerting anti-allodynic and anti-hyperalgesic effects by down-modulating both microglial and mast cell activity has led to the application of this fatty acid amide in several clinical studies of neuropathic pain, with beneficial outcome and no indication of adverse effects at pharmacological doses. "

09/01/2013 - "We have proposed an essential fatty acid, a component of our diet and cells, the polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid (ARA) as a remedy for schistosomiasis, due to its ability to activate the parasite tegument-bound neutral sphingomyelinase, with subsequent hydrolysis of the apical lipid bilayer sphingomyelin molecules, allowing access of specific antibody molecules, and eventual worm attrition. "

01/01/1985 - "Exercise proteinuria may help to identify individuals with the greatest intrinsic stiffening of red cells which appears to be due to the disposition of spectrin molecules rather than to changes in the lipid bilayer. "
