Cytoskeleton-inspired, adaptive nanolipogels as superlubricating delivery vehicles

Panpan Zhao*, Avijit Mondal, Nir Kampf +3

Phosphatidylcholine liposomes fill a special niche in alleviating osteoarthritis via intra-articular (IA) administration, attributed to their superlubricity at the articular cartil…

Bioinspired polymer-incorporating self-lubricating and antifouling hydrogels

Weifeng Lin, Monika Kluzek, Nir kampf +2

Healthy articular cartilage has excellent lubricating properties, with friction coefficients reaching extremely low values at physiological pressures. Such high-performing lubricat…

Cell-inspired, massive electromodulation of interfacial energy dissipation

Yu Zhang, Di Jin, Ran Tivony +2

Transient electric fields across cell bilayer membranes can lead to electroporation, as well as to cell fusion, and have been extensively studied. We find that transmembrane electr…

Multi-lipid synergy in synovial lubrication: natural redundancy vs. natural selection

Yifeng Cao, Di Jin, Nir Kampf +1

The very low sliding friction of articular cartilage in the major synovial joints such as hips and knees is crucial for their well-being, and has been attributed to lubrication by…

Neutral polyphosphocholine-modified liposomes as boundary superlubricants

Weifeng Lin, Nir Kampf, Jacob Klein

Boundary lubrication is associated with two sliding molecularly thin lubricated film-coated surfaces, where the energy dissipation occurs at the slip-plane between lubricated films…

Long-ranged attraction between disordered heterogeneous surfaces

Gilad Silbert, Dan Ben-Yaakov, Yael Dror +3

Long-ranged attractions across water between two surfaces that are randomly covered with (mobile) positive and negative charge domains have been attributed to induced correlation o…
