Influence of ibuprofen on phospholipid membranes.
A basic understanding of biological membranes is of paramount importance as these membranes comprise the very building blocks of life itself. Cells depend in their function on a range of properties of the membrane, which are important for the stability and function of the cell, information and nutrient transport, waste disposal, and finally the admission of drugs into the cell and also the defl...
متن کاملMolecular Dynamics Simulations on Phospholipid Membranes
Phospholipids are the main components of cell membranes, lipoproteins and other membrane structures in living organisms. Properties of lipid molecules are important to the overall behaviour and interactions of membranes. Furthermore, characteristics of the biological membranes act as important regulators of membrane functions. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were applied in this thesis to s...
متن کاملPhospholipid nonwoven electrospun membranes.
Nonwoven fibrous membranes were formed from electrospinning lecithin solutions in a single processing step. As the concentration of lecithin increased, the micellar morphology evolved from spherical to cylindrical, and at higher concentrations the cylindrical micelles overlapped and entangled in a fashion similar to polymers in semi-dilute or concentrated solutions. At concentrations above the ...
متن کاملElectroporation of asymmetric phospholipid membranes.
As plasma membranes of animal cells are known to be asymmetric, the transmembrane lipid asymmetry, being essential for many membranes' properties and functions, should be properly accounted for in model membrane systems. In this paper, we employ atomic-scale molecular dynamics simulations to explore electroporation phenomena in asymmetric model membranes comprised of phosphatidylcholine (PC) an...
متن کاملBinding of MARCKS (myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate)-related protein (MRP) to vesicular phospholipid membranes.
The myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein family has two known members, MARCKS itself and MARCKS-related protein (MRP, also called MacMARCKS or F52). They are essential for brain development and are believed to regulate the structure of the actin cytoskeleton at the plasma membrane. Hence membrane binding is central to their function. MARCKS has been quite extensively c...
