Biophysics-based critique of the assisted discharge mechanism hypothesis
Julie V. Stern, Thiruvallur R. Gowrishankar, Kyle C. Smith +1
Cell experiments with large, short electric field pulses of opposite polarity reveal a remarkable phenomenon: Bipolar cancellation (BPC). Typical defining experiments involve quant…
Nanopore occlusion: A biophysical mechanism for bipolar cancellation in cell membranes
Thiruvallur R. Gowrishankar, Julie V. Stern, Kyle C. Smith +1
Extraordinarily large but short electric field pulses are reported by many experiments to cause bipolar cancellation (BPC). This unusual cell response occurs if a first pulse is fo…
Solute transport within single pores post-pulse
Julie V. Stern, Thiruvallur R. Gowrishankar, James C. Weaver
We present results of studying the post-pulse transport properties of single pores. Single pores exhibit active transport (drift), and not just passive transport (diffusion) at ear…
Electroporation dynamics for different pore lifetimes based on the standard model
Thiruvallur R. Gowrishankar, Julie V. Stern, James C. Weaver
Standard model of electropration (EP) has long emphasized a single pore lifetime to explain post-pulse transport across cell membranes. However, pore lifetimes estimated from molec…
Broad pore lifetime distributions: A fundamental concept for cell electroporation
Julie V. Stern, Thiruvallur R. Gowrishankar, Kyle C. Smith +1
We describe a concept that has the potential to change how we think about the underlying mechanisms of cell membrane electroporation (EP). Prior experimental, theoretical and model…
Pore lifetimes in cell electroporation: Complex dark pores?
James C. Weaver, P. Thomas Vernier
We review some of the basic concepts and the possible pore structures associated with electroporation (EP) for times after electrical pulsing. We purposefully give only a short des…
