“…The reversible liposomal dissociation and assembly mechanisms may be applied to the selective transmission and reception mechanisms of the information molecules (or small liposomes that encapsulate information molecules) at a sender and receiver (Fig. 5), respectively [84,70]. A small liposome embedded with GPLs acts as a capsule of information molecules (i.e., a molecular capsule) and a giant liposome embedded with GPLs acts as a sender/receiver.…”

“…For instance, a synthetic sender/receiver that uses a giant liposome embedded with gemini-peptide lipids (GPLs) has been proposed [84,70]. The GPLs are composed of two amino acid residues, each having a hydrophobic double-tail and a functional spacer unit connected to the polar heads of the lipid.…”

“…Controlled loading and delivery of liposome containers: In a first feasibility study [33], it was observed that molecular tags could be used to enforce the delivery of tagged liposome containers to Rx vesicles with matching labels. In a further study [34], the controlled loading of liposome containers with information molecules at a Tx vesicle was achieved.…”

Since its emergence from the communication engineering community around one and a half decades ago, the field of Synthetic Molecular Communication (SMC) has experienced continued growth, both in the number of technical contributions from a vibrant community and in terms of research funding. Throughout this process, the vision of SMC as a novel, revolutionary communication paradigm has constantly evolved, driven by feedback from theoretical and experimental studies, respectively. It is believed that especially the latter ones will be crucial for the transition of SMC towards a higher technology readiness level in the near future. In this spirit, we present here a comprehensive survey of experimental research in SMC. In particular, this survey focuses on highlighting the major drivers behind different lines of experimental research in terms of the respective envisioned applications. This approach allows us to categorize existing works and identify current research gaps that still hinder the development of practical SMC-based applications. Our survey consists of two parts; this paper and a companion paper. While the companion paper focuses on SMC with relatively long communication ranges, this paper covers SMC over short distances of typically not more than a few millimeters.

“…Key research challenges in molecular communication include 1) design of a sender that generates and emits molecules, 2) design of a molecular transport system [2] that directionally transports the emitted molecules from a sender to a receiver, 3) design of a receiver [3] that receives the transported molecules and biochemically reacts to the received molecules, 4) design of a communication interface [4] between a sender and a transport system and also between a transport system and a receiver to allow a generic transport of molecules independent of their characteristics. Molecular communication is inspired by the biological communication mechanisms (e.g., cell-cell communication using hormones) and artificially creates a controllable communication system.…”

This paper describes a molecular transport system in molecular communication that uses the machinery in living cells. The molecular transport system requires: 1) loading of the specified cargo molecules at a loading site (at a sender); 2) transport of the loaded cargoes to an unloading site (to a receiver); and 3) unloading of the transported cargoes at the unloading site, all without using external stimuli. Through the DNA strand exchange at a loading site and at an unloading site, and through motility of a biological motor system (kinesins and microtubules), the authors of this paper constructed a molecular transport system and demonstrated that kinesin-driven microtubules autonomously load, transport and unload cargoes to which a specified DNA strand is attached.
