Unravelling the Distinct Phenotype and Mechanosensitive Properties of Different Tendon Cell Populations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Tendon interfascicular and fascicular matrix cells are isolated and cultured, revealing distinct phenotypes and mechanosensitive responses. Interfascicular matrix cells exhibit marked stiffness‐dependent phenotypic plasticity, whereas fascicular matrix cells remain comparatively stable.

Correlation analysis between lower limb muscle architectures and cycling power via ultrasonography

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The primary purpose was to examine the relationship between the muscle architectural characteristics of short and long-distance cyclist—including muscle thickness, fascicle angle, and fascicle length—of the anterior thigh and posterior leg and its impact

Macrophage Dab1 Links Early Hypoxia to Adaptive Angiogenesis to Drive Peripheral Nerve Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram illustrating the Dab1‐linked hypoxia signaling pathway that accelerates angiogenesis and consequent nerve regeneration. Following PNI, a hypoxic microenvironment develops. Hypoxia induces macrophage Dab1 phosphorylation, resulting in NHE‐1 upregulation, HIF‐1α stabilization, and VEGF‐A expression. This cascade promotes angiogenesis in

Biomimetic 3D Tactile Sensor System With Neuromorphic Encoding for Fascicle‐Level Feedback

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A 3D biomimetic tactile sensor system converts skin‐like mechanical interactions into neural stimulation‐ready spike patterns. Embedded slow‐ and fast‐adapting sensors distinguish sustained pressure from transient touch, while neuromorphic encoding preserves their temporal signatures.

Unexpected fascicle length changes in denervated feline soleus muscle during stance phase of walking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
After surgical repair of traumatically severed peripheral nerves, associated muscles are paralyzed for weeks. Little is known about fascicle length changes in paralyzed muscles during locomotion.

Continuous and Large‐Scale: ELEANOR, the Soft Architected Arm Inspired by the Elephant Trunk

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A large‐scale, architected continuum robot inspired by the macroscopic properties of the African elephant trunk achieves adaptive elephant‐like movements and whole‐body grasping. The results demonstrate that designing from the natural system’s macroscopic properties, rather than prescribing behaviors, provides a powerful strategy for developing ...

Multimodal Characterization of Glymphatic‐Related Magnetic Resonance Imaging Markers in Huntington's Disease: A Multi‐Cohort Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective To characterize magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐based glymphatic surrogates in Huntington's disease (HD) using MRI measures of perivascular diffusivity and structural perivascular alterations across multiple large cohorts. Methods We analyzed 2,731 MRI sessions from 880 participants across 3 large retrospective HD cohorts.

A novel diffusion‐tensor MRI approach for skeletal muscle fascicle length measurements

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2016
AbstractMusculoskeletal (dys‐)function relies for a large part on muscle architecture which can be obtained using Diffusion‐Tensor MRI (DT‐MRI) and fiber tractography. However, reconstructed tracts often continue along the tendon or aponeurosis when using conventional methods, thus overestimating fascicle lengths. In this study, we propose a new method
