Assembly of a chondrocyte-like pericellular matrix on non-chondrogenic cells. Role of the cell surface hyaluronan receptors in the assembly of a pericellular matrix.
In this study, we have examined the capacity of various cell types, which express cell surface hyaluronan receptors, to organize a chondrocyte-like pericellular matrix when given chondrocyte-derived extracellular matrix macromolecules exogenously. The assembly of a pericellular matrix was visualized by a particle exclusion assay. Without the addition of exogenous macromolecular components, none...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Spatially Varying Extracellular Matrix Alignment
Orientation of extracellular matrix fibers in the skin is a key ingredient of tissue appearance and function, and differences in fiber alignment are one of the main distinctions between scar tissue and normal skin. In this paper, the authors develop a mathematical model for alignment of collagen fibers and the fibroblast cells that remodel them; the model extends previous work in which spatial ...

متن کاملVarying Diameter and Problem Size in Mesh-Connected Computers
On a mesh-connected computer, moving data across the mesh is the most time-consuming operation in many algorithms. This time can be reduced by using a mesh with smaller diameter, i.e., with fewer processing elements. To accomodate inputs of the same size, this requires that the processors have more memory. For image processing and graph theoretic algorithms we analyze the time as a function of ...
