Constructal approach to cell membranes transport: Amending the ‘Norton-Simon’ hypothesis for cancer treatment
To investigate biosystems, we propose a new thermodynamic concept that analyses ion, mass and energy flows across the cell membrane. This paradigm-shifting approach has a wide applicability to medically relevant topics including advancing cancer treatment. To support this claim, we revisit 'Norton-Simon' and evolving it from an already important anti-cancer hypothesis to a thermodynamic theorem...
متن کاملMechanical Deformation Accelerates Protein Ageing.
A hallmark of tissue ageing is the irreversible oxidative modification of its proteins. We show that single proteins, kept unfolded and extended by a mechanical force, undergo accelerated ageing in times scales of minutes to days. A protein forced to be continuously unfolded completely loses its ability to contract by folding, becoming a labile polymer. Ageing rates vary among different protein...
متن کاملHYPOTHESIS TESTING FOR AN EXCHANGEABLE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
Consider an exchangeable normal vector with parameters ????2, and ?. On the basis of a vector observation some tests about these parameters are found and their properties are discussed. A simulation study for these tests and a few nonparametric tests are presented. Some advantages and disadvantages of these tests are discussed and a few applications are given.

متن کاملMechanical deformation of single-crystal ZnO
The deformation behavior of bulk ZnO single crystals is studied by a combination of spherical nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy. Results show that ZnO exhibits plastic deformation for relatively low loads ~*4–13 mN with an ;4.2 mm radius spherical indenter!. Interestingly, the elastic–plastic deformation transition threshold depends on the loading rate, with faster loading resulting, ...
