Classical and quantum filaments in the ground state of trapped dipolar Bose gases [PDF]
We study by quantum Monte Carlo simulations the ground state of a harmonically confined dipolar Bose gas with aligned dipole moments, and with the inclusion of a repulsive two-body potential of varying range.

Effect of age and cytoskeletal elements on the indentation-dependent mechanical properties of chondrocytes. [PDF]
Articular cartilage chondrocytes are responsible for the synthesis, maintenance, and turnover of the extracellular matrix, metabolic processes that contribute to the mechanical properties of these cells.

Phosphorylation of Subunit Proteins of Intermediate Filaments from Chicken Muscle and Nonmuscle Cells [PDF]
The phosphorylation of the subunit proteins of intermediate (10-nm) filaments has been investigated in chicken muscle and nonmuscle cells by using a two-dimensional gel electrophoresis system. Desmin, the 50,000-dalton subunit protein of the intermediate

Characterization of cells of amniotic fluids by immunological identification of intermediate-sized filaments: Presence of cells of different tissue origin [PDF]
Antibodies against intermediate-sized filaments, of the prekeratin or vimentin type, were used to investigate the presence of these filaments by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy in cultured and non-cultured amniotic fluid cells, in frozen sections ...

Intermediate Filaments at the Junction of Mechanotransduction, Migration, and Development
Mechanically induced signal transduction has an essential role in development. Cells actively transduce and respond to mechanical signals and their internal architecture must manage the associated forces while also being dynamically responsive.

Hierarchical Structure Controls Nanomechanical Properties of Vimentin Intermediate Filaments [PDF]
Intermediate filaments (often abbreviated as IFs), in addition to microtubules and microfilaments, are one of the three major components of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells (Figure 1).

Intermediate filament structure
In a previous communication (Biosci. Rep. 3, 517–525, 1993) we described quantitative X-ray diffraction studies of α-keratin which were shown to be consistent with the presence of finite arrays of repeating units, successive arrays being set down at axial intervals of 470 Å.

GASP. XVI. Does cosmic web enhancement turn on star formation in galaxies? [PDF]
Galaxy filaments are a peculiar environment, and their impact on the galaxy properties is still controversial. Exploiting the data from the GAs Stripping Phenomena in galaxies with MUSE (GASP), we provide the first characterisation of the spatially ...

Bubbles and Filaments: Stirring a Cahn-Hilliard Fluid [PDF]
The advective Cahn-Hilliard equation describes the competing processes of stirring and separation in a two-phase fluid. Intuition suggests that bubbles will form on a certain scale, and previous studies of Cahn-Hilliard dynamics seem to suggest the ...
