a, b, and c, two liposomes in each group regained more or less circular shape after the shape change completed; d, one and e, two of these liposomes eventually returned to more or less circular shape. For details, see text. Numbers in parentheses, number of liposomes in which Brownian motion of small particles stopped; within all the deformed liposomes (irregular and protrusive), Brownian motion of the small particles stopped.
