GM1 asymmetry in the membrane stabilizes pores

M. Aleksanyan, R. B. Lira, J. Steinkuehler, R. Dimova

This study shows that GM1 asymmetry in cell membranes stabilizes pores by slowing pore resealing through nanotube formation and reduced edge tension.

To close or to collapse: the role of charges on membrane stability upon pore formation

R. B. Lira, F. S. C. Leomil, R. J. Melo, K. d. A. Riske, R. Dimova

This study investigates how membrane surface charge and medium composition affect pore stability, showing that charged membranes are more prone to collapse and that calcium ions can reverse this effect.
