This study shows that benzaldehyde and its by-product, benzaldehyde propylene glycol acetal, disrupt pulmonary surfactant biophysical function by interacting with surfactant proteins SP-B and SP-C.

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations and experimental techniques to investigate how surfactant proteins SP-B and SP-C interact with lipid monolayers, revealing their role in modulating surface pressure and phase behavior.

This study compares the trafficking and signaling of GLP-1R and GIPR in pancreatic beta cells, revealing differences in internalization, recycling, and subcellular activity.

The paper develops a correlative imaging approach to study lipid lateral packing, mobility, and collective assembly at the plasma membrane during ciliary membrane biogenesis in polarized epithelial cells.

The paper identifies a midbody remnant-associated membrane patch that contributes to ciliary membrane formation in polarized epithelial cells.

This study introduces LIESS-FCS, a method that simultaneously measures diffusion in confocal and STED modes to reveal nanoscale diffusion characteristics in live cell membranes.

The paper uses fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy to analyze molecular dynamics at focal adhesions in polarized cells, showing differential self-assembly dynamics and antero-posterior gradients.
