THE INFLUENCE OF DETERGENTS ON SOME PHYSIOLOGICAL PHENOMENA, ESPECIALLY ON THE PROPERTIES OF THE STELLATE CELLS OF THE FROG LIVER [PDF]
1. After a consideration of the physicochemical properties of detergents, it was deemed worth while to study some of their physiological effects. As nonpolar-polar electrolytes, the detergents are surface-active and as such cytolytics; but probably due to their dispersing and wetting properties, they are cytolytic in a fashion different from that of ...

Morpho-physiological and biochemical response of rice (Oryza sativa L.) to drought stress: A review
Global food shortages are caused mainly by drought, the primary driver of yield loss in agriculture worldwide. Drought stress negatively impacts the physiological and morphological characteristics of rice (Oryza sativa L.), limiting the plant ...

The missing link: does tunnelling nanotube-based supercellularity provide a new understanding of chronic and lifestyle diseases? [PDF]
Tunnelling nanotubes (TNTs) are increasingly recognized as central players in a multitude of cellular mechanisms and diseases. Although their existence and functions in animal organisms are still elusive, emerging evidence suggests that they are involved

On the mechanical interplay between intra- and inter-synchronization during collective cell migration : a numerical investigation [PDF]
Collective cell migration is a fundamental process that takes place during several biological phenomena such as embryogenesis, immunity response, and tumorogenesis, but the mechanisms that regulate it are still unclear.

The modern thesis regarding the “structural plastic” properties of the brain, as reactions to injuries, to tissue damage, and to degenerative cell apoptosis, can hardly be seen as expendable in clinical neurology and its allied disciplines (including ...

Cellular excitability and the regulation of functional neuronal identity: from gene expression to neuromodulation [PDF]
The intrinsic properties of a neuron determine the translation of synaptic input to axonal output. It is this input– output relationship that is the heart of all nervous system activity.

C1q/Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Protein 9: Basics and Therapeutic Potentials
C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 9 (CTRP9) is a newly discovered adipokine that is the closest paralog of adiponectin. Proteolytic cleavage of CTRP9 leads to the release of the globular domain (gCTRP9), which serves as the major circulating ...

MODELLING THE INFLUENCE OF NUCLEUS ELASTICITY ON CELL INVASION IN FIBER NETWORKS AND MICROCHANNELS [PDF]
Cell migration in highly constrained extracellular matrices is exploited in scaffold-based tissue engineering and is fundamental in a wide variety of physiological and pathological phenomena, among others in cancer invasion and development. Research into
