The plasma membrane is one of the principal structural components of the cell and,
therefore, one of the key components of the cellular life. Because the membrane's dynamics …

Cytosolic Ca2+ signals are organized in complex spatial and temporal patterns that underlie
their unique ability to regulate multiple cellular functions. Changes in intracellular Ca2+ …

Soft magnetic composites have been orderly deposited using an advanced four-dimensional
electrohydrodynamic printing process to build deformable actuators that have favorable …

Recent studies have shown that bacterial membrane potential is dynamic and plays
signaling roles. Yet, little is still known about the mechanisms of membrane potential …

The lateral diffusion of lipids within membrane is of paramount importance, serving as a
central mechanism in numerous physiological processes including cell signaling …

Non-genetic photostimulation is a novel and rapidly growing multidisciplinary field that aims
to induce light-sensitivity in living systems by exploiting exogeneous phototransducers …

The lack of effective therapies for visual restoration in Retinitis pigmentosa and macular
degeneration has led to the development of new strategies, such as optogenetics and retinal …

Curcumin, the main ingredient in turmeric, has attracted attention due to its potential anti-
inflammatory, anticancer, wound-healing, and antioxidant properties. Though curcumin …

The viscosity of cell membranes is a crucial parameter that affects the diffusion of small
molecules both across and within the lipid membrane and that is related to several diseases …

We introduce a family of membrane-targeted azobenzenes (MTs) with a push-pull character
as a new tool for cell stimulation. These molecules are water soluble and spontaneously …
