Why Muscle is an Efficient Shock Absorber
Skeletal muscles power body movement by converting free energy of ATP hydrolysis into mechanical work. During the landing phase of running or jumping some activated skeletal muscles are subjected to stretch. Upon stretch they absorb body energy quickly and effectively thus protecting joints and bones from impact damage. This is achieved because during lengthening, skeletal muscle bears higher f...
متن کاملHeat shock factor 5 is essential for spermatogenesis in mice: Detected by a new monoclonal antibody
Objective(s): Here, we examined the function of our produced monoclonal antibody (mAb10C3) to recognize one of the most important members of the HEAT shock factor family, Hsf5, in embryonic development and in spermatogenic cells of adult mouse testis.Materials and Methods: The targeting effects of mAb10C3 were investigated by immunohisto...
متن کاملRegenerative Shock Absorber for Hybrid Cars
All vehicles use suspension system. The suspension system mainly consists of a mechanical spring and a damper. The damper dissipates the mechanical energy into heat and thus damps down the vehicle oscillations. In a bid to reduce the vehicle emissions, many technologies are being thought to reduce energy losses and also recover energy from the energy losses if any. One such technology is regene...
متن کاملThe RhoGEF DOCK10 is essential for dendritic spine morphogenesis
By regulating actin cytoskeleton dynamics, Rho GTPases and their activators RhoGEFs are implicated in various aspects of neuronal differentiation, including dendritogenesis and synaptogenesis. Purkinje cells (PCs) of the cerebellum, by developing spectacular dendrites covered with spines, represent an attractive model system in which to decipher the molecular signaling underlying these processe...
متن کاملThe foot as a shock absorber.
A mathematical analysis of the deformation of the foot is developed to determine the role that stretch of ligaments and tendons plays in absorbing shock following impact. Our analysis is based on an anatomical biomechanical model that includes each of the bones of the foot. We calculate the time course of the deflection of the joints and the elongation of the ligaments and tendons and determine...
