Modeling and Simulation of Shape Changes of Red Blood Cells in Shear Flow
… dimensions. Finally, the notion of interpreting membrane viscosity as an additional fluid viscosity is studied and a computational scheme based on power law fluids is described.</p>

Dynamic behavior of healthy and malaria infected human red blood cells
… changes to the spectrin molecular network and membrane of human red blood cells (RBCs). These structural changes lead to altered cell shape, deformability, cytoadherence and rheology which may in turn, promote the onset of vaso-occlusive events and crises that may ultimately cause pain, stroke, …

Investigation of the effects of chinese herb medicine on TNF-[alpha] induced apoptosis in Huvec and Jurkat cells and their antioxidative effects
… possibly leading to a normalization of the membrane viscosity. In the RBC-EC adhesion tests, a maximum (about three-fold as compared to control) increase in RBC-EC adhesion was obtained when both RBC and EC were treated with H2O2. This increase in adhesion was almost completely inhibited by …

Modulation kollektiver Membrandynamik im mesoskopischen Bereich durch Einbau und Adsorption von Biomolekülen
… von kurzen DNA-Stücken an kationische Membranen und deren Einfluss auf die Membranparameter untersucht. Die Experimente konzentrierten sich auf den Vergleich kurzer DNA Doppelstränge (ds-DNA) und Einzelstränge (ss-DNA). Die Adsorption der beiden DNA-Typen zeigte für die in der …

Protein-lipid interactions in raft-exhibiting membranes probed by combined AFM and FCS
The cellular membrane is a complex biological entity, far from being an inert assembly of protein and lipids which separates cells from the surrounding environment. A multitude of biological processes, ranging from active transport of ions into and out of the cell, to the immune response, are …
