Cell membranes are the boundaries of living cells. They are made up of amphiphilic lipids, cholesterol, and membrane proteins arranged in a dynamic bilayer. They regulate signal transduction, ...
A recent study published in Small explored how cationic fusogenic liposomes can merge directly with cellular membranes to improve drug delivery. Researchers found that these liposomes can temporarily ...
The CM-pDPNA system uses γ-4S-2CTX to self-assemble into uniform nanoparticles, which are then modified with PEG and tumor cell membranes. This dual camouflage improves nanoparticle stability, tumor ...
Biological membranes of cells and their subunits (organelles) are organized into tiny regions (nanodomains) made up of fats ...
Cells are not isolated units; they continuously exchange proteins, genetic material, and even entire organelles with their neighbors. Intercellular transfer influences how tissues develop, respond to ...
A new imaging technique reveals lipids in cellular membranes and shows how they are organized at the nanoscale.
