The plasma membrane is asymmetric, meaning each leaflet has a distinct lipid composition and phase behavior. The loss of membrane asymmetry might be a crucial difference between health and disease. Cancer cells exhibit phosphatidylserine (PS) asymmetry loss, meaning that PS lipids, found in healthy cells on the PM inner leaflet, are exposed to the exoplasmic leaflet, signaling apoptosis (…
