Preconditioning of mesenchymal stromal cells with low-intensity ultrasound: influence on chondrogenesis and directed SOX9 signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Continuous low-intensity ultrasound (cLIUS) facilitates the chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the absence of exogenously added transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) by upregulating the expression of ...

Low-level finite state control of knee joint in paraplegic standing [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Low-level finite state (locked-unlocked) control is compared with open-loop stimulation of the knee extensor muscles in functional electrical stimulation (FES) induced paraplegic standing.

Electrical and mechanical activities of longitudinal muscle contraction elicited by transmural electric stimulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
Intracellular electrical and mechanical activities were simultaneously recorded from the longitudinal muscle of isolated guinea-pig jejunum when the preparation was stimulated transmurally by square pulses of 1 msec, 10 Hz, 10-40 V.

Mechanical stimulation enhances endothelin-1 hyperalgesia [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience, 2011
When comparing a cumulative dose-response curve for endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced mechanical hyperalgesia to the effect of individual doses (1 ng, 10 ng, 100 ng, and 1 μg) administered in separate groups of rats, a marked difference was observed in the peak magnitude of hyperalgesia. Hyperalgesia was measured as decrease in the threshold for mechanically-

DLX5 regulates the osteogenic differentiation of spinal ligaments cells derived from ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament patients via NOTCH signaling

open access: yesJOR Spine, 2023
Background Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligaments (OPLL) is common disorder characterized by heterotopic ossification of the spinal ligaments. Mechanical stimulation (MS) plays an important role in OPLL.

Epipharyngeal receptors responding to mechanical stimulation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 1969
1. Action potentials were recorded from twenty‐one afferent nerve fibres from receptors in the epipharynx in anaesthetized, paralysed cats. Sixteen of the fibres had no spontaneous discharge.2. Gentle mechanical stimulation of the epithelium of the epipharynx with a nylon fibre caused all twenty‐one receptors to discharge with rapidly adapting bursts ...

SERCA is critical to control the Bowditch effect in the heart [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Bowditch effect or staircase phenomenon is the increment or reduction of contractile force when heart rate increases, defined as either a positive or negative staircase.
