Label-free and charge-sensitive dynamic imaging of lipid membrane hydration on millisecond time scales

Sylvie Roke, Orly Bagunu Tarun

Biological membranes are highly dynamic and complex lipid bilayers, responsible for the fate of living cells. To achieve this function, the hydrating environment is crucial. However, membrane imaging typically neglects water, focusing on the insertion of p ...

Ultrathin Alumina Membranes as Scaffold for Epithelial Cell Culture from the Intestine of Rainbow Trout

Philippe Renaud, Kristin Schirmer, Songmei Wu, Carolin Drieschner

Permeable membranes are indispensable for in vitro epithelial barrier models. However, currently available polymer-based membranes are low in porosity and relatively thick, resulting in a limited permeability and unrealistic culture conditions. In this stu ...

Elastic and dynamic properties of membrane phase-field models

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Phase-field models have been extensively used to study interfacial phenomena, from solidification to vesicle dynamics. In this article, we analyze a phase-field model that captures the relevant physical features that characterize biological membranes. We s ...

Damage of eukaryotic cells by the pore-forming toxin sticholysin II: Consequences of the potassium efflux

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Sylvia Ho

Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) form holes in membranes causing one of the most catastrophic damages to a target cell. Target organisms have evolved a regulated response against PFTs damage including cell membrane repair. This ability of cells strongly depends ...

Bioluminescence for Assessing Drug Potency against Nonreplicating Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Stewart Cole, Neeraj Dhar, Claudia Sala, Ruben Hartkoorn, Anthony Vocat, Ming Zhang, Benoit Lechartier

Targeting dormant Mycobacterium tuberculosis represents a challenge to antituberculosis drug discovery programs. We previously reported and validated the use of the streptomycin (STR)-dependent M. tuberculosis 18b strain as a tool for assessing drug potenc ...
