Kempe equivalence and quadratic toric rings [PDF]
Perfectly contractile graphs form a typical class of perfect graphs. In particular, all $k$-colorings of a perfectly contractile graph are Kempe equivalent. Everett and Reed conjectured that a graph is perfectly contractile if and only if it contains no odd holes, no antiholes and no odd prisms.

Steatotic hepatocytes‐derived extracellular vesicles (SHep‐EVs) in the liver of mice with metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) can be transferred to vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), exacerbating atherosclerosis and calcification by delivering Lgals3bp.

The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL) are a group of inherited, severe neurodegenerative disorders also known as Batten disease. Juvenile NCL (JNCL) is caused by recessive loss-of-function mutations in CLN3, which encodes a transmembrane protein that ...

Differential cellular contractility as a mechanism for stiffness sensing [PDF]
The ability of cells to sense and respond to the mechanical properties of their environments is fundamental to a range of cellular behaviours, with substrate stiffness increasingly being found to be a key signalling factor. Although active contractility of the cytoskeleton is clearly necessary for stiffness sensing in cells, the physical mechanisms ...

The behaviour of contractile vacuole complexes of cryptophycean flagellates [PDF]
The behaviour of contractile vacuole complexes of representatives of the Cryptophycean genera Chilomonas, Cryptomonas, Cyathomonas and Rhodomonas is described using light and electron microscopy. The contractile vacuole occupies a fixed position in the cell, lying adjacent to the flagellar pocket/groove.

ABSTRACT Background COVID‐19 has been associated with both respiratory (diaphragm) and non‐respiratory (limb) muscle atrophy. It is unclear if SARS‐CoV‐2 infection of skeletal muscle plays a role in these changes. This study sought to: 1) determine if cells comprising skeletal muscle tissue, particularly myofibres, express the molecular components ...

Vascular endothelial cell injury: causes, molecular mechanisms, and treatments
Endothelial cell injury is considered a critical initiating factor in the pathogenesis of various diseases, triggered by multiple factors such as disturbed shear stress and mechanical injury, environmental toxins, metabolic disorders, bacterial/viral infections, and dyslipidemia.

Highly durable crack sensor integrated with silicone rubber cantilever for measuring cardiac contractility in culture media [PDF]
We propose a novel cantilever device integrated with a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-encapsulated crack sensor that directly measures the cardiac contractility. The crack sensor was chemically bonded to a PDMS thin layer to form a sandwiched structure which allows to be operated very stably in culture media.

An overview of Suctorian ciliates (Ciliophora, Suctorea) as epibionts of halacarid mites (Acari, Halacaridae) [PDF]
Scant information is available regarding the prevalence and distribution of suctorian ciliates on halacarid mites. However, using this limited information and data from our laboratory on the systematics, biology, ecology and distribution of suctorian ...
