Developing Parameter-Reduction Methods on a Biophysical Model of Auditory Hair Cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Biophysical models describing complex, cellular phenomena typically include systems of nonlinear differential equations with many free parameters. While experimental measurements can fix some parameters, those describing internal cellular processes frequently remain inaccessible.

Chronobiology Meets Quantum Biology: A New Paradigm Overlooking the Horizon?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Biological processes and physiological functions in living beings are featured by oscillations with a period of about 24 h (circadian) or cycle at the second and third harmonic (ultradian) of the basic frequency, driven by the biological clock.

The effect of biochemical changes upon certain biophysical phenomena of nerve activity: the functional significance of the connective tissue sheath of the peripheral nerve trunk

open access: closed, 1953
It has been known for a long time that the peri pheral nerves in vertebrates consist of an aggregati of nervous tissue, the nervous elements, or nerve fibres, bound together by "indifferent" connective tissue, This binding tissue resembles connective tissue found in all parts of the body, and it might be supposed by analogy that its sole function is ...

A Systematic Review of Continuum Modeling of Skeletal Muscles: Current Trends, Limitations, and Recommendations

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2018
Finite elasticity theory has been commonly used to model skeletal muscle. A very large range of heterogeneous constitutive laws has been proposed. In this review, the most widely used continuum models of skeletal muscles were synthetized and discussed ...

Role of Cell Surface Hydrophobicity in the Pathogenesis of Medically-Significant Fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) is an important cellular biophysical parameter which affects both cell-cell and cell-surface interactions. In dimorphic fungi, multiple factors including the temperature-induced shift between mold and yeast forms have ...

From multiscale biophysics to digital twins of tissues and organs: future opportunities for in silico pharmacology [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
With many advancements in in silico biology in recent years, the paramount challenge is to translate the accumulated knowledge into exciting industry partnerships and clinical applications. Achieving models that characterize the link of molecular interactions to the activity and structure of a whole organ are termed multiscale biophysics. Historically,
