Impact of external influences on characteristics of domains in biological membranes

详细

Living systems continually interact with the environment. External influences evoke complex processes in the entire system. In this work, the impact of external influences on the behavior of the domains in biological membranes is considered both in general and on special examples. A general approach of nonequilibrium statistical thermodynamics proposed by L.A. Stratonovich along with the same approach adapted to stochastic storage processes are applied. Both the Stratonovich theory and the storage models allow characterizing specific features of the stationary non-equilibrium states as well as the behavior of the highly non-equilibrium processes in open systems, such as live organisms.
