A PDE model for bleb formation and interaction with linker proteins [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 The aim of this paper is to further develop mathematical models for bleb formation in cells, including cell-membrane interactions with linker proteins. This leads to nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations on a surface coupled to fluid dynamics in the bulk.

Canaloplasty: current value in the management of glaucoma [PDF]
, 2016 Canaloplasty is a nonpenetrating blebless surgical technique for open-angle glaucoma, in which a flexible microcatheter is inserted within Schlemm's canal for the entire 360 degrees. When the microcatheter exits the opposite end, a 10-0 prolene suture is

A finite element method for a fourth order surface equation with application to the onset of cell blebbing [PDF]
, 2020 A variational problem for a fourth order parabolic surface partial differential equation is discussed. It contains nonlinear lower order terms, on which we only make abstract assumptions, and which need to be defined for specified problems.We derive a ...

Model of inverse bleb growth explains giant vacuole dynamics during cell mechanoadaptation [PDF]
, 2022 Cells can withstand hostile environmental conditions manifest as large mechanical forces such as pressure gradients and/or shear stresses by dynamically changing their shape. Such conditions are realized in the Schlemm's canal of the eye where endothelial cells that cover the inner vessel wall are subjected to the hydrodynamic pressure gradients ...
