Biological membranes are key elements for the maintenance of cell architecture and
physiology. Beyond a pure barrier separating the inner space of the cell from the outer, the …

Membrane lipids interact with proteins in a variety of ways, ranging from providing a stable
membrane environment for proteins to being embedded in to detailed roles in complicated …

Advancement in mid-infrared (MIR) technology has led to promising biomedical applications
of MIR spectroscopy, such as liquid biopsy or breath diagnosis. On the contrary, MIR …

Abstract In 1972 the Fluid—Mosaic Membrane Model of membrane structure was proposed
based on thermodynamic principals of organization of membrane lipids and proteins and …

Animal viruses are parasites of animal cells that have characteristics such as heredity and
replication. Viruses can be divided into non-enveloped and enveloped viruses if a lipid …

Squalene (SQ) is a natural compound, a precursor of various hormones in animals and
sterols in plants. It is considered a molecule with pharmacological, cosmetic, and nutritional …

Cancer is a complex disease involving numerous biological processes, which can exist in
parallel, can be complementary, or are engaged when needed and as such can replace …

Despite considerable progress in genome-and proteome-based high-throughput screening
methods and in rational drug design, the increase in approved drugs in the past decade did …

Biological membranes are highly ordered structures consisting of mosaics of lipids and
proteins. Elevated temperatures can directly and effectively change the properties of these …

Understanding interactions between nanoparticles (NPs) with biological matter, particularly
cells, is becoming increasingly important due to their growing application in medicine and …
