Cellular morphology of leg musculature in the water bear Hypsibius exemplaris (Tardigrada) unravels serial homologies [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 Tardigrades (water bears) are microscopic, segmented ecdysozoans with four pairs of legs. Lobopodous limbs that are similar to those seen in tardigrades are hypothesized to represent the ancestral state of Panarthropoda (Tardigrada + Onychophora ...

Electrical Properties of Spider Leg Muscle
The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1961 Electrical properties of the spider muscle fiber were examined on M. flexor patellae longus and M. flexor patellae bilobatus of Atypus karschi DOENITZ. 1. The resting membrane potential ranged from -46 to -75 mV (mean -66 mV). 2. By stimulation of nerve strands, two kinds of responses, ‘fast’ and ‘slow’, were intracellularly recorded from a single ...

Adaptive behaviour of the spinal cord in the transition from quiet stance to walking
BMC Neuroscience, 2012 Background Modulation of nociceptive withdrawal reflex (NWR) excitability was evaluated during gait initiation in 10 healthy subjects to investigate how load- and movement-related joint inputs activate lower spinal centres in the transition from quiet ...

Thermal Processing Creates Water‐Stable PEDOT:PSS Films for Bioelectronics
Advanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.Instead of using chemical cross–linkers, it is shown that PEDOT:PSS thin films for bioelectronics become water‐stable after a simple heat treatment. The heat treatment is compatible with a range of rigid and elastomeric substrates and films are stable in vivo for >20 days.

Recent Progress on Flexible Multimodal Sensors: Decoupling Strategies, Fabrication and Applications
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.In this review, we establish a tripartite decoupling framework for flexible multimodal sensors, which elucidates the underlying principles of signal crosstalk and their solutions through material design, structural engineering, and AI algorithms. We also demonstrate its potential applications across environmental monitoring, health monitoring, human ...
