Designing allostery-inspired response in mechanical networks [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Recent advances in designing metamaterials have demonstrated that global mechanical properties of disordered spring networks can be tuned by selectively modifying only a small subset of bonds.

Electrical and Mechanical Response in Biventricular Mechanical Alternans

Archives Internationales de Physiologie et de Biochimie, 1979
Mechanical alternans of various degrees is produced by rapid heart rates, slower rates in failing hearts and can be brought about by a single extra systole. It has also been shown that the two ventricles may exhibit different degrees of mechanical alternation.

Anisotropic Mechanical Response of a Shale

Proceedings, 2010
The purpose of the study is to characterize the main features of the anisotropic mechanical behaviour of a shale (Opalinus Clay), and to identify an anisotropic constitutive framework adapted to the response of the material under mechanical perturbations.

On Vestibular Response to Mechanical Irritation

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1970
In the belief that stapedectomy provides an wartunity for studying labyrinthine response to mechanical irritation, peroperatory electronystagmography was performed on 10 consecutive otosclerotic pa...

Mechanisms responsible for the photocurrent in bacteriorhodopsin

Physical Review E, 2015
Recently, there has been growing interest in the electrical properties of bacteriorhodopsin (bR), a protein belonging to the transmembrane protein family. Several experiments pointed out the role of green light in enhancing the current flow in nanolayers of bR, thus confirming potential applications of this protein in the field of optoelectronics.

Localization and Mechanisms of Airway Responses

New England Journal of Medicine, 1977
The air passages of the lung are not rigid tubes; they can reduce their caliber in response to chemicals, such as sulfur dioxide, drugs, such as histamine, and antigenic agents, such as ragweed pol...

Mechanism for regulation of immune responses

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1976
Several mechanisms for the control of immune responses have been postulated ( Bretscher & Cohn, 1968; Cohen, 1970; Bretscher, 1972; Jerne, 1974; Marchalonis, Morris & Harris, 1974 ). During the course of several lines of investigation carried out in our laboratory, evidence has been accumulating that would suggest a possible mechanism for the ...

The Molecular Mechanism of Macrophages in Response to Mechanical Stress

Annals of Biomedical Engineering
Macrophages, a type of functionally diversified immune cell involved in the progression of many physiologies and pathologies, could be mechanically activated. The physical properties of biomaterials including stiffness and topography have been recognized as exerting a considerable influence on macrophage behaviors, such as adhesion, migration ...

The Mechanisms Responsible for the Urge to Defecate

Gastroenterology, 1957
Summary The urge to defecate was studied in 49 patients ranging in age from 23 to 71. By means of 2 tandem intra-rectal balloons connected to tambours, motility was studied as the rectum was progressively distended and as patients reported their urges to defecate. Rectal distention appeared to elicit urges when it stimulated rectal contractions.

Leucodepletion and immune response mechanisms

Vox Sanguinis, 2004
The recipient and donor mechanisms responsible for mediat-ing alloimmunity and immunomodulation during bloodtransfusions are complex and most probably superimposedthus creating multilevel fields of potential interaction andregulation. For example, at the recipient level, both the innateand adaptive immune systems can be significantly affectedby various ...
