Tendon gliding exercises.
An exercise program for tendon gliding is introduced for use in hand treatment and rehabilitation. The program incorporates thumb range of motion and three basic fist positions: book, fist, and straight fist. The anatomic and experimental basis of this program is discussed. The exercises allow the flexor tendons to glide to their maximum potential and can greatly facilitate therapeutic activiti...
متن کاملMyxococcus xanthus Gliding Motors Are Elastically Coupled to the Substrate as Predicted by the Focal Adhesion Model of Gliding Motility
Myxococcus xanthus is a model organism for studying bacterial social behaviors due to its ability to form complex multi-cellular structures. Knowledge of M. xanthus surface gliding motility and the mechanisms that coordinated it are critically important to our understanding of collective cell behaviors. Although the mechanism of gliding motility is still under investigation, recent experiments ...
متن کاملDoes marketing success lead to market success?
Is the practice of marketing bad for the economy and, therefore, bad for society? This article explores whether market success and marketing success are compatible. First, we examine the concept of “market success” in the context of the dynamic competition perspective of resource– advantage theory, and we argue that successful markets are characterized by competitive processes that lead to five...
متن کاملCentipede and inchworm models to explain Mycoplasma gliding.
The twelve Mycoplasma species known to glide on solid surfaces all lack surface flagella or pili, and no genes homologous to known motility systems have been found in the five genomes sequenced to date. Recent studies on the fastest of these species, M. mobile, examined novel proteins involved in the gliding mechanism, binding targets on the solid surfaces, energy sources and mechanical charact...
متن کاملChemotaxis in a gliding bacterium.
Myxococcus xanthus cells exhibit directed motility up phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) gradients, and we suggest that PE behaves as a chemoattractant. Computer-assisted stop-motion digital microscopy was used to record cell movements in slide culture. PE decreased cellular reversal frequency with molecular specificity that was correlated with the fatty acid composition. Synthetic dilauroyl (di C12...
