In the theory the nanoparticles were assumed to have a spatially distributed electric charge. The density functional theory for the nanoparticles within the solution was developed. The excluded volume effect was taken into account by the closest approach of the nanoparticles to the charged surfaces. It was shown that for large enough dimensions of nanoparticles and large enough surface charge densities of membrane surfaces, the two equally charged surfaces could experience an attractive force due to the spatially distributed charges within the nanoparticles.
