Computer Simulation of Cytoskeleton-Induced Blebbing in Lipid Membranes [PDF]
, 2011 Blebs are balloon-shaped membrane protrusions that form during many physiological processes. Using computer simulation of a particle-based model for self-assembled lipid bilayers coupled to an elastic meshwork, we investigated the phase behavior and kinetics of blebbing.

A Diffuse Interface Model for Cell Blebbing Including Membrane-Cortex Coupling with Linker Dynamics [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The aim of this paper is to develop suitable models for the phenomenon of cell blebbing, which allow for computational predictions of mechanical effects including the crucial interaction of the cell membrane and the actin cortex. For this sake we resort to a two phase-field model that uses diffuse descriptions of both the membrane and the cortex, which

Sharp interface analysis of a diffuse interface model for cell blebbing with linker dynamics [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 We investigate the convergence of solutions of a recently proposed diffuse interface/phase field model for cell blebbing by means of matched asymptotic expansions. It is a biological phenomenon that increasingly attracts attention by both experimental and theoretical communities.

Actin at cell-cell junctions is composed of two dynamic and functional populations [PDF]
, 2005 The ability of epithelial cells to polarize requires cell-cell adhesion mediated by cadherin receptors. During cell-cell contact, the mechanism via which a flat, spread cell shape is changed into a tall, cuboidal epithelial morphology is not known.

Consensual ophthalmotonic reaction in Chinese patients following augmented trabeculectomy or ExPRESS shunt implantation [PDF]
, 2016 INTRODUCTION: Consensual ophthalmotonic reaction (COR) was first described in 1924. Studies following monocular application of glaucoma drops and laser trabeculoplasty showed a drop in fellow eye intraocular pressure (IOP).
