In this paper we apply the improved Riccati equation mapping method to construct many families of exact solutions of a nonlinear partial differential equation involving parameters of a special interest in nanobiosciences and biophysics which describe a model of microtubules as nonlinear RLC transmission lines. As results, we can successfully recover the previously known results that have been found using other methods. This method is straightforward and concise, and it can be applied to other nonlinear PDEs in mathematical physics. Comparison between our new results and the well-known results are given. Some comments on the well-known results are also presented at the end of this article.
