Introduction: Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of intercellular communication, enclosed by a phospholipid bilayer and lack the ability to replicate. Characterization of EVs is essential ...

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 76, No. 1 (Jan., 1979), pp. 145-149 (5 pages) Two methods are reported for the formation of large, uniform-sized ...

Biological supramolecular assemblies, such as phospholipid bilayer membranes, have been used to demonstrate signal processing via short-term synaptic plasticity (STP) in the form of paired pulse ...

An invaluable tool for analyzing liposomes is Small-Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS). Liposomes, a class of nanoparticles, have a phospholipid bilayer wall by which they are characterized. They are ...

Cell membranes are thin measuring around 5 nanometers thick and to put that into perspective you could fit about 10,000 membranes across one human hair. However, does understanding a cell membrane's ...
