In the living matter physics he created the knowledge of bioflexoelectricity, including a new theoretical model for description of the elasticity and flexoelectricity of biological membranes from the general molecular asymmetry point of view. (wikipedia.org)
The investigation of the structural features in biological membranes represents a central topic in many aspects of biological science. (aimspress.com)
In this article, we describe the main techniques and approaches employed for the investigation of biological membranes, which are characterized by a wide range of the space-time domains. (aimspress.com)

Our study demonstrates that TMEM106B protein abundance is increased with brain ageing in humans, establishes that dementia risk allele rs1990622-A predisposes to TMEM106B fibril formation in the hippocampus, and provides the first evidence that rs1990622-A affects brain lipid homeostasis, particularly myelin lipids.
