Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Early life behaviors have a profound role in shaping adult craniofacial morphology. During early life, all mammals undergo the dynamic transition from suckling to mastication, a period coinciding with rapid cranial biomineralization. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that impacts the production of type I collagen, disrupts ...

Voltage-gated channel mechanosensitivity: Fact or Friction?
Frontiers in Physiology, 2011 The heart is a continually active pulsatile fluid pump that generates forces by precisely timed and spaced engagement of contractile nano-machinery. This pump largely generates its own control signals, the most crucial of which involve precisely timed ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Measurement error (ME) in geometric morphometrics has been the subject of countless articles, but none specific to the effect of time lags on landmark digitization error. Yet, especially for visiting scientists working on museum collections, it is not uncommon to collect data in multiple rounds, with interruptions of weeks or years. To explore

BioEssays, EarlyView.Cell shape changes underlie animal development, physiology, and disease. The cell surface is mechanosensitive to the microenvironment and cytoskeleton activities, which generate plasma membrane topographies recognized and affected by Arp2/3 actin network induction pathways to remodel cell shape during immune cell migration, neural progenitor cell ...

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 223-229, January/February 2023., 2023 Abstract Background Bacterial meningitis (BM) and meningoencephalitis (BMEM) are associated with high case fatality rates and neurologic sequelae in people, but limited data exists on outcome in dogs. Hypothesis/Objectives To report the clinicopathologic features, treatment and outcome of BM/BMEM in dogs, with a focus on clinical presentation, relapse ...

Analysis of a model microswimmer with applications to blebbing cells and mini-robots [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Recent research has shown that motile cells can adapt their mode of propulsion depending on the environment in which they find themselves. One mode is swimming by blebbing or other shape changes, and in this paper we analyze a class of models for movement of cells by blebbing and of nano- robots in a viscous fluid at low Reynolds number.

Unjamming Transition as a Paradigm for Biomechanical Control of Cancer Metastasis
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Tumor metastasis is a complex phenomenon that poses significant challenges to current cancer therapeutics. While the biochemical signaling involved in promoting motile phenotypes is well understood, the role of biomechanical interactions has recently begun to be incorporated into models of tumor cell migration.

Eye &ENT Research, EarlyView.Abstract Due to the limited regenerative capacity in adult mammals, the loss of vestibular hair cells (HCs) leads to balance disorders. In this study, we chronologically reprogrammed adult vestibular supporting cells (SCs) via bimodal regulation of Notch signaling, mimicking dynamic changes in Notch signaling during inner ear development. We found that
