Lipid Builder: A Framework To Build Realistic Models for Biological Membranes

Matteo Dal Peraro, Thomas Lemmin, Giorgio Elikem Tamo, Christophe Bovigny, Nicolas Grégoire Maïno

The physical and chemical characterization of biological membranes is of fundamental importance for understanding the functional role of lipid bilayers in shaping cells and organelles, steering vesicle trafficking and promoting membrane-protein signaling. ...

In situ synthesis and simulation of polydisperse amphiphilic membranes

Lida Kanari, Julian Charles Shillcock, Liesbeth Maria L Vanherpe, Guy Antoine Atenekeng Kahou, Juan Pablo Palacios

The field of coarse-grained simulations of biopolymers and membranes has grown rapidly in recent years. Industrial groups manufacture and use polymers in fields as diverse as chemicals processing and personal care products, while academic researchers are i ...

A New Noninvasively Adjustable Glaucoma Drainage Device

Adan Villamarin

Glaucoma is an irreversible disease affecting the eye, leading to progressive loss of vision and eventually to total blindness. It is often related to high intraocular pressure (IOP), which results from increased outflow resistance to aqueous humor. The fi ...

In Vivo Testing of a Novel Adjustable Glaucoma Drainage Device

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, André Mermoud, Sylvain Roy, Adan Villamarin, Stéphane Bigler

PURPOSE. We report on the in vivo testing of a novel noninvasively adjustable glaucoma drainage device (AGDD), which features an adjustable outflow resistance, and assess the safety and efficiency of this implant. METHODS. Under general anesthesia, the AGD ...

Present in bacterial and mitochondrial membranes, cardiolipins have a unique dimeric structure, which carries up to two charges (i.e., one per phosphate group) and, under physiological conditions, can be unprotonated or singly protonated. Exhaustive models ...

Glaucoma results in an increase in the resistance of the aqueous humor outflow, which in turn leads to an increase of the intraocular pressure (IOP). Several treatments are proposed to reduce and stabilize the IOP that include medications, filtering surger ...
