Modeling the induction of lipid membrane electropermeabilization.
Experiments show significant effects of an electric field on lipid membrane, leading to a pore formation when a high intensity field is applied. The phenomenon of electroporation is preceded by the induction and expansion of defects, responsible for the pre-pore excitation. We examine the mechanism of the induction of the field-driven defects by Monte Carlo simulations. The study is based on th...
متن کاملCell membrane electropermeabilization with arbitrary pulse waveforms.
xposure of a biological cell to an electric field can produce a variety of responses [1]-[6]. If the field strength exceeds a certain threshold value, this leads to a large transient increase in membrane conductivity and permeability for ions and molecules (electropermeabilization, often also named electroporation) or to fusion of adjacent cells (electrofusion) [5], [6]. Nowadays, these phenome...
متن کاملModeling DNA beacons at the mesoscopic scale.
We report model calculations on DNA single strands which describe the equilibrium dynamics and kinetics of hairpin formation and melting. Modeling is at the level of single bases. Strand rigidity is described in terms of simple polymer models; alternative calculations performed using the freely rotating chain and the discrete Kratky-Porod models are reported. Stem formation is modeled according...
متن کاملModeling and analysis of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic using the classical SIR model
In this paper modeling, analysis and prediction of novel epidemic of COVID-19 are concerned to identify effective spread parameters of it in Iran. For this purpose, the basic susceptible-infected-removed (SIR) model is used which has two parameters: the infection rate and remove rate. The occurrence of several maximum points in the Iranian data and the single peak of the SIR model makes it impo...
متن کاملRole of pulse shape in cell membrane electropermeabilization.
The role of the amplitude, number, and duration of unipolar rectangular electric pulses in cell membrane electropermeabilization in vitro has been the subject of several studies. With respect to unipolar rectangular pulses, an improved efficiency has been reported for several modifications of the pulse shape: separate bipolar pulses, continuous bipolar waveforms, and sine-modulated pulses. In t...
