Sažetak
The research of the nanoparticle (NP) delivery systems and the use of NPs both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes have created a need for understanding the complex interactions of NPs with cells. Membrane-NP interactions are of crucial importance both for the cell uptake and toxicological investigations. The presence of hydrophobic NPs embedded within a lipid bilayer, can lead to changes in lipid packing by modifying interactions amongst the lipd headgroups and/or acyl tails.
