Optimal Design of Orthosis during Walking in Water for the Rehabilitation of ACL Injury

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2011
The objective of this study was to design an orthosis during the exercise of walking in water for the rehabilitation of ACL injury. In the rehabilitation of ACL injury, it is necessary to train the muscles around the knee joint.

Minimal Bio-Inspired Crawling Robots with Motion Control Capabilities

open access: yesActuators, 2023
Nonskeletal animals such as worms achieve locomotion via crawling. We consider them as an inspiration to design robots that help underline the mechanisms of crawling. In this paper, we aim to identify an approach with the simplest structure and actuators.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Fault Detection Based on a Bio-Inspired Vibration Sensor System

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
A novel vibration sensor based on a bio-inspired nonlinear structure with quasi-zero stiffness characteristic is developed for the real-time measurement of absolute vibration motion.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

A Method of Three-Dimensional Micro-Rotational Flow Generation for Biological Applications

open access: yesMicromachines, 2016
We report a convenient method to create a three-dimensional micro-rotational fluidic platform for biological applications in the direction of a vertical plane (out-of-plane) without contact in an open space.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Bio-inspired Collision Detection with Motion Cues Enhancement in Dim Light Environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Detecting looming objects robustly and timely is a huge challenge for artificial vision systems in complex natural scenes, including dim light scenes. Insects have evolved remarkable capacities in collision detection despite their tiny eyes
