Synthetic mechanobiology: engineering cellular force generation and signaling.
Mechanobiology seeks to understand and control mechanical and related biophysical communication between cells and their surroundings. While experimental efforts in this field have traditionally emphasized manipulation of the extracellular force environment, a new suite of approaches has recently emerged in which cell phenotype and signaling are controlled by directly engineering the cell itself...

چکیده: در این تحقیق، برخی خواص فیزیکی و مکانیکی لوبیا قرمز به-صورت تابعی از محتوی رطوبت بررسی شد. نتایج نشان داد که رطوبت بر خواص فیزیکی لوبیا قرمز شامل طول، عرض، ضخامت، قطر متوسط هندسی، قطر متوسط حسابی، سطح تصویر شده، حجم، چگالی توده، تخلخل، وزن هزار دانه و زاویه ی استقرار استاتیکی در سطح احتمال 1 درصد اثر معنی داری دارد. به طوری که با افزایش رطوبت از 54/7 به 12 درصد بر پایه خشک طول، عرض، ضخام...
15 صفحه اولConversion of mechanical force into biochemical signaling.
Physical forces play important roles in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and death by activating intracellular signal transduction pathways. How cells sense mechanical stimulation, however, is largely unknown. Most studies focus on cellular membrane proteins such as ion channels, integrins, and receptors for growth factors as mechanosensory units. Here we show that mechanical str...
متن کاملChemical and mechanical signaling in epithelial spreading.
We propose a minimal mathematical model to explain long-range coordination of dynamics of multiple cells in epithelial spreading, which may be induced, under different conditions, by a chemical signal, or mechanically induced strain, or both. The model is based on chemo-mechanical interactions including a chemical effect of strain, chemically induced polarization and active traction, and intera...
متن کاملForce-dependent mechanical unfolding pathways of GFP
We characterize the force-dependent unfolding pathways and intermediate configurations of the green fluorescence protein (GFP) using novel atomistic simulations based on potential energy surface exploration. By using this approach, we are able to unfold GFP to significantly longer end-to-end distances, i.e. 40 nm, as compared to that seen in previous atomistic simulation studies. We find that t...
