The dynamics of constituents and the surface response of cellular membranes—also in
connection to the binding of various particles and macromolecules to the membrane—are …

How nanoparticles interact with biomembranes is central for understanding their bioactivity.
Biomembranes wrap around nanoparticles if the adhesive interaction between the …

Abstract Membrane remodelling,,,, plays an important role in cellular tasks such as
endocytosis, vesiculation and protein sorting, and in the biogenesis of organelles such as …

When a colloidal particle adheres to a fluid membrane, it induces elastic deformations in the
membrane which oppose its own binding. The structural and energetic aspects of this …

The adhesion and engulfment of nanoparticles by biomembranes is essential for many
processes such as biomedical imaging, drug delivery, nanotoxicity, and viral infection. Many …

The uptake of nanoparticles (NPs) by a cellular membrane is known to be NP size
dependent, but the pathway and kinetics for the endocytosis of multiple NPs still remain …

Adhesion and insertion of curvature-mediating proteins can induce dramatic structural
changes in cell membranes, allowing them to participate in several key cellular tasks. The …

We present a simple theoretical model for adsorption of colloidal particles onto vesicles. The
contact energy of adhesion is balanced by the tension and curvature energies of the vesicle …

How nanoparticles interact with biomembranes is central for understanding their bioactivity.
In this Letter, we report novel tubular membrane structures induced by adsorbed spherical …

Gene therapies are revolutionizing medicine by providing a way to cure hitherto incurable
diseases. The scientific and technological advances have enabled the first gene therapies to …
