Vitamin E supplement improves erythrocyte
membrane fluidity of thalassemia: an ESR spin labeling study.
E-liquids rapidly entered cells and PG/VG reduced
membrane fluidity and impaired protein diffusion.
[1,2] This leads to increase in
membrane fluidity, rigidity, and loss of integrity.
ROS leads to decreased
membrane fluidity, loss of enzyme receptor activity and serious damage to membrane protein.
Oxysterols may affect cholesterol metabolism,
membrane fluidity regulation, and intracellular signalling pathways.
Formation of ice crystals reorders lipids and changes in lipid-lipid and lipid-protein bonds and reduces
membrane fluidity and permeability during freezing.
Additional studies have shown that piracetam influences
membrane fluidity specifically when normal fluidity is compromised.
It has been known that PUFA play a key role in the sperm
membrane fluidity and susceptibility to lipid peroxidation [9].
Cholesterol composes about 30% of all cell membranes, modulates
membrane fluidity, and also functions in intracellular transport, cell signaling, and nerve conduction.
Cytoskeleton de-polymerization, protein conformation, metabolic reactions and
membrane fluidity are regarded as the temperature sensitive processes (Ruelland and Zachowski, 2010).
