Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

Molecular Systems Biology, 2018 Cell size, cell growth, and cell cycle events are necessarily intertwined to achieve robust bacterial replication. Yet, a comprehensive and integrated view of these fundamental processes is lacking. Here, we describe an image‐based quantitative screen of

Cell Shape and Cell Lineage Conversion
The Journal of Poultry Science, 2015 The organization of animal cells in vivo can be categorized as being either epithelial or mesenchymal. Inter-conversions between these two states, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and mesenchymal-epithelial transition (MET), often represent key ...

A mechano-osmotic feedback couples cell volume to the rate of cell deformation
eLife, 2022 Mechanics has been a central focus of physical biology in the past decade. In comparison, how cells manage their size is less understood. Here, we show that a parameter central to both the physics and the physiology of the cell, its volume, depends on a ...

, 2017 Using a popular vertex-based model to describe a spatially disordered planar epithelial monolayer, we examine the relationship between cell shape and mechanical stress at the cell and tissue level. Deriving expressions for stress tensors starting from an

Decoding Information in Cell Shape [PDF]
Cell, 2013 Shape is an indicator of cell health. But how is the information in shape decoded? We hypothesize that decoding occurs by modulation of signaling through changes in plasma membrane curvature. Using analytical approaches and numerical simulations, we studied how elongation of cell shape affects plasma membrane signaling.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background An international Delphi panel of experts developed consensus statements to delineate the circumstances where the risks of dexamethasone as an antiemetic do and do not outweigh its benefits. Procedure Experts in supportive care of pediatric patients were invited to participate.

eLifeMaintenance of rod-shape in bacterial cells depends on the actin-like protein MreB. Deletion of mreB from Pseudomonas fluorescens SBW25 results in viable spherical cells of variable volume and reduced fitness.

mSystems, 2021 How cells control their shape and size is a fundamental question of biology. In most bacteria, cell shape is imposed by the peptidoglycan (PG) polymeric meshwork that surrounds the cell.

Shear band formation in granular media as a variational problem
, 2004 Strain in sheared dense granular material is often localized in a narrow region called shear band. Recent experiments in a modified Couette cell provided localized shear flow in the bulk away from the confining walls.
