A Mechanical Force Contributes to the “Osmotic Swelling” of Brush-Border Membrane Vesicles

Brush-border membrane vesicles and an osmotic swelling assay have been used extensively to monitor the pore-forming activity of Bacillus thuringiensis toxins. After a hypertonic shock, Manduca sexta midgut brush-border membrane vesicles shrink rapidly and reswell partially to a volume that depends o...
