In this study, we explored the calcium-induced formation of phosphatidylserine-enriched
lipid domains in Langmuir− Blodgett (LB) monolayers composed of the binary mixture of the …

To better understand the influence of cholesterol (CH) on
dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE), Langmuir− Blodgett (LB) model membranes …

In order to model biological membranes, DPPE (1, 2-dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-
phosphoethanolamine) and DPPC (1, 2-dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) …

The use of phospholipids as mimetic systems for studies involving the cell membrane is a
well-known approach. In this context, the Langmuir and Langmuir− Blodgett (LB) methods …

The interaction between dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) and phospholipid monolayers with
different polar headgroups was studied using “in situ” Brewster angle microscopy (BAM) …

Supported planar bilayers (SPBs) on mica substrates have been studied at 23° C under
atomic force microscopy (AFM)-based surface topography and force spectroscopy with two …

Phosphatidic acids (PAs) have many biological functions in biomembranes, eg, they are
involved in the proliferation, differentiation, and transformation of cells. Despite decades of …

We study the effect of Ca2+ on the lateral segregation of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-
phosphoethanolamine (POPE) and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol …

Interactions of the divalent cations Ca2+ and Mg2+ with the zwitterionic lipid bilayers
prepared of a fully saturated dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) or a di …

Cell membranes are crucial to many biological processes. Because of their complexity,
however, lipid bilayers are often used as model systems. Lipid structures influence the …
