abstract = {The temperature dependence of intermembrane interactions in
freely suspended multilamellar membranes of
dimiristoylphosphatidylcholine in D2O was studied using
small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and high-resolution
x-ray diffraction (HRXRD). The study reveals that the
Helfrich's undulation force is the dominating repulsion
force at temperatures above 48.6 degrees C and intermembrane
distances larger than 20.5 A. At similar to 77 degrees C the
onset of the unbinding transition in the multilamellar
membranes is observed. This transition has a continuous
behavior in agreement with theoretical predictions and
proceeds in accordance with a two-state model. Complimentary
analysis of SANS and HRXRD data permits accurate calculation
of the fundamental undulation force constant c(fl). The
obtained value of c(fl)=0.111 +/- 0.005 is in good agreement
with theoretical calculations. The results of this work
demonstrate a key role of Helfrich's undulations in the
balance of intermembrane interactions of lipid membranes
under physiological temperatures and suggest that thermal
undulations play an important part in the interactions of
biological membranes. The agreement of the predictions with
the experimental data confirms that lipid membranes can be
considered as random fluctuating surfaces that can be
described well by current theoretical models and that they
can serve as a powerful tool for studying behavior of such
surfaces.},
