Targeting Mechano-Transcription Process as Therapeutic Intervention in Gastrointestinal Disorders
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 Mechano-transcription is a process whereby mechanical stress alters gene expression. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is composed of a series of hollow organs, often encountered by transient or persistent mechanical stress.

Mechanical growth and morphogenesis of seashells [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2012 Seashells grow through the local deposition of mass along the aperture. Many mathematical descriptions of the shapes of shells have been provided over the years, and the basic logarithmic coiling seen in mollusks can be simulated with few parameters.

Collisions between sintered icy aggregates [PDF]
, 2017 Collisions between sintered icy dust aggregates are numerically simulated. If the temperature of an icy aggregate is sufficiently high, sintering promotes molecular transport and a neck between adjacent grains grows.

Germline TP53 Mutations Causing Diamond–Blackfan Anemia: A French Report
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Diamond–Blackfan anemia is a rare congenital erythroblastopenia typically caused by mutations in ribosomal protein genes. Recently, gain‐of‐function mutations in TP53 have been identified as a novel cause of Diamond–Blackfan anemia. We report two French patients who both harbored a heterozygous TP53 deletion (NM_000546.5: c.1077delA; p ...

Mechanisms of Stranski-Krastanov growth [PDF]
Journal of Applied Physics, 2012 Stranski-Krastanov (SK) growth is reported experimentally as the growth mode that is responsible for the transition to three dimensional islands in heteroepitaxial growth. A kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) model is proposed that can replicate many of the experimentally observed features of this growth mode.

Study of a pair of coupled continuum equations modeling surface growth
, 2002 In this communication we introduce a pair of coupled continuum equations to model overlayer growth with evaporation-accretion due to thermal or mechanical agitations of the substrate.

Morphology of Proliferating Epithelial Cellular Tissue [PDF]
, 2018 We investigate morphologies of proliferating cellular tissue using a newly developed numerical simulation model for mechanical cell division. The model reproduces structures of simple multi-cellular organisms via simple rules for selective division and ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In pediatric patients, T‐cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T‐LBL) survival exceeds 80%. Relapse remains associated with limited curative options. Frontline treatment is largely extrapolated from T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) treatment, reflecting the ongoing debate, whether both entities represent distinct diseases or variants within ...

Microplastics and NanoplasticsPlastic items released in the marine environment are subject to weathering processes which alter their surface physiochemical properties, and which can induce the leaching of associated chemicals from the polymer matrix to the aquatic media.
