These characteristics suggest that pressure pulsatility may contribute to barotrauma-induced renal microvascular injury, and in turn causes glomerular ultrastructural changes (e.g., podocyte loss and glomerular basement membrane thickness) (1– 6).
We further show that 25-HC-driven cholesterol activation is caused by effects on lipid order and leaflet interdigitation that, in turn, significantly reduce the membrane thickness to leave cholesterol in a more accessible state.
Glomerular basal membrane thickness was normal.
The membrane thickness was measured preoperatively using CBCT.
the ratio of the effective membrane thickness to membrane porosity (m).
(a) Extracted experimental data for membrane thickness effect of biomimetic membrane-coated graphene biosensor.
Furthermore, embedding a proton-transfer wire into the membrane is equivalent to applying a focused membrane potential across the membrane, and thus the effective membrane thickness is reduced.
The lipopeptide penetrates the membrane by hydrophobic interactions influencing the order of the hydrocarbon chains and consequently the membrane thickness.
Design parameters for inflatable antennas generally include inflation pressure, membrane thickness, elastic modulus of membrane material, boundary conditions, temperature, etc.
