Mesarec L, Kralj S, Iglic A
Nanomaterials (Basel)
. 2024 Feb;
14(3).
PMID: 38334517
We numerically studied localized elastic distortions in curved, effectively two-dimensional nematic shells. We used a mesoscopic Landau-de Gennes-type approach, in which the orientational order is theoretically considered by introducing the...

Mesarec L, Gozdz W, Kralj-Iglic V, Kralj S, Iglic A
Sci Rep
. 2023 Jul;
13(1):10663.
PMID: 37393271
The impact of the intrinsic curvature of in-plane orientationally ordered curved flexible nematic molecules attached to closed 3D flexible shells was studied numerically. A Helfrich-Landau-de Gennes-type mesoscopic approach was adopted...

Holbl A, Mesarec L, Polansek J, Iglic A, Kralj S
ACS Omega
. 2023 Jan;
8(1):169-179.
PMID: 36643572
We considered general mechanisms enabling the stabilization of localized assemblies of topological defects (TDs). There is growing evidence that physical fields represent fundamental natural entities, and therefore these features are...

Mesarec L, Iglic A, Kralj S
Eur Phys J E Soft Matter
. 2022 Jul;
45(7):62.
PMID: 35876913
It is well known that positions of topological defects (TDs) in liquid crystals can be manipulated experimentally by locally distorting the liquid crystalline (LC) order, as for example by melting...

Gongadze E, Mesarec L, Kralj S, Kralj-Iglic V, Iglic A
Membranes (Basel)
. 2021 Nov;
11(11).
PMID: 34832041
Within a modified Langevin Poisson-Boltzmann model of electric double layers, we derived an analytical expression for osmotic pressure between two charged surfaces. The orientational ordering of the water dipoles as...

Raval J, Gongadze E, Bencina M, Junkar I, Rawat N, Mesarec L, et al.
Membranes (Basel)
. 2021 Aug;
11(7).
PMID: 34357183
In this review paper, we theoretically explain the origin of electrostatic interactions between lipid bilayers and charged solid surfaces using a statistical mechanics approach, where the orientational degree of freedom...

PeniAt S, FosnariAt M, Mesarec L, IgliAt A, Kralj-IgliAt V
Acta Chim Slov
. 2021 Apr;
67(2):674-681.
PMID: 33855566
By using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations, we have shown that the active forces generated by (NMIIA) motor domains bound to F-actin may partially control the endovesiculation of the red blood...

Mesarec L, Drab M, Penic S, Kralj-Iglic V, Iglic A
Int J Mol Sci
. 2021 Mar;
22(5).
PMID: 33652934
Biological membranes are composed of isotropic and anisotropic curved nanodomains. Anisotropic membrane components, such as Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) superfamily protein domains, could trigger/facilitate the growth of membrane tubular protrusions, while isotropic...

PLoS One
. 2020 Dec;
15(12):e0244796.
PMID: 33382808
Tiny membrane-enclosed cellular fragments that can mediate interactions between cells and organisms have recently become a subject of increasing attention. In this work the mechanism of formation of cell membrane...

Biochim Biophys Acta Biomembr
. 2020 May;
1862(9):183361.
PMID: 32422137
Mechanical properties of a lipid bilayer are parameters determined mainly for giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). It is not clear if values obtained on the GUV model can be directly translated...
