A Molecular Communication Interface Using Liposomes with Gap Junction Proteins

Molecular communication is an emerging communication paradigm that uses molecules as a communication medium. Molecular communication allows biological and artificially created nano- or cell-scale devices to communicate with each other. This paper proposes a molecular communication system that uses liposomes with gap junction proteins as an interface. A liposome acts as a container of information molecules, and information molecules propagate through gap junctions from a sender to a liposome and also from a liposome to a receiver
