Passive material behavior of granulocytes based on large deformation and recovery after deformation tests.
In order to better understand the in vivo rheologic behavior of white cells, we have studied the time-dependent deformability, recovery, and mechanical activation of blood granulocytes. We have used micropipette aspiration methods to measure the large deformation response and recovery after deformation characteristics of neutrophils as functions of time, temperature, and collecting media. The c...
متن کاملTime dependent transformations in deformation quantization
We study the action of time dependent canonical and coordinate transformations in phase space quantum mechanics. We extend the covariant formulation of the theory by providing a formalism that is fully invariant under both standard and time dependent coordinate transformations. This result considerably enlarges the set of possible phase space representations of quantum mechanics and makes it po...
متن کاملMechanical deformation induces depolarization of neutrophils
The transition of neutrophils from a resting state to a primed state is an essential requirement for their function as competent immune cells. This transition can be caused not only by chemical signals but also by mechanical perturbation. After cessation of either, these cells gradually revert to a quiescent state over 40 to 120 min. We use two biophysical tools, an optical stretcher and a nove...
متن کاملShape-Dependent Global Deformation Modes of Large Protein Structures.
Conformational changes are central to the functioning of pore-forming proteins that open and close their molecular gates in response to external stimuli such as pH, ionic strength, membrane voltage or ligand binding. Normal mode analysis (NMA) is used to identify and characterize the slowest motions in the gA, KcsA, ClC-ec1, LacY and LeuT(Aa) proteins at the onset of gating. Global deformation ...
