A coupled mitral valve -- left ventricle model with fluid-structure interaction

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the interaction between the valves and walls of the heart is important in assessing and subsequently treating heart dysfunction. With advancements in cardiac imaging, nonlinear mechanics and computational techniques, it is now possible to ...

Coupling of Active Motion and Advection Shapes Intracellular Cargo Transport

open access: yes, 2012
Intracellular cargo transport can arise from passive diffusion, active motor-driven transport along cytoskeletal filament networks, and passive advection by fluid flows entrained by such motor/cargo motion.

An investigation into the relationship between small intestinal fluid secretion and systemic arterial blood pressure in the anesthetized rat [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the absence of an ability to absorb fluid by cellular uptake mechanisms, fluid movement in vivo from the perfused rat intestine is absorptive when the diastolic blood pressure is normal or very low but is secretory when blood pressure falls below ...

Water deprivation and the double- depletion hypothesis: common neural mechanisms underlie thirst and salt appetite

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2007
Water deprivation-induced thirst is explained by the double-depletion hypothesis, which predicts that dehydration of the two major body fluid compartments, the extracellular and intracellular compartments, activates signals that combine centrally to ...

Cellular interactions in the tumor microenvironment: the role of secretome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Over the past years, it has become evident that cancer initiation and progression depends on several components of the tumor microenvironment, including inflammatory and immune cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, adipocytes, and extracellular matrix ...

TRPV4-A Missing Link Between Mechanosensation and Immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 4 (TRPV4) cation channel is widely expressed in all tissues as well as in immune cells and its function as mechanosensitive Ca2+ channel seems to be conserved throughout all mammalian species. Of late, emerging
