Mechanical Mechanisms of Chromosome Segregation [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2021
Chromosome segregation—the partitioning of genetic material into two daughter cells—is one of the most crucial processes in cell division. In all Eukaryotes, chromosome segregation is driven by the spindle, a microtubule-based, self-organizing subcellular structure.

Mechanical allodynia [PDF]

open access: yesPflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2014
Mechanical allodynia (other pain) is a painful sensation caused by innocuous stimuli like light touch. Unlike inflammatory hyperalgesia that has a protective role, allodynia has no obvious biological utility. Allodynia is associated with nerve damage in conditions such as diabetes, and is likely to become an increasing clinical problem.

Politics as Mechanics: The Possibility of Explaining and Analyzing Social Issus on the Basis of Statics and Dynamics Criteria [PDF]

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities, 2013
The study of social phenomena dominating the society, due to its unique conditions, needs improving and pondering. Although, in the first view, simulating the social phenomena with the mechanical phenomena may be considered illogical due to the ...

The mechanics of mechanical ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Médica de Minas Gerais, 2014
The Ventilator has represented an advance in the respiratory support for patients on anesthesia and intensive care. The ventilatory support increases the chance of survival in patients with respiratory failure, and / or major surgical procedures. This paper consists of a summary of advances in the ventilatory support, in describing the physiological ...

Co-movement of astral microtubules, organelles and F-actin by dynein and actomyosin forces in frog egg cytoplasm

open access: yeseLife, 2020
How bulk cytoplasm generates forces to separate post-anaphase microtubule (MT) asters in Xenopus laevis and other large eggs remains unclear. Previous models proposed that dynein-based, inward organelle transport generates length-dependent pulling forces

Classical mechanics as nonlinear quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
All measurable predictions of classical mechanics can be reproduced from a quantum-like interpretation of a nonlinear Schrodinger equation. The key observation leading to classical physics is the fact that a wave function that satisfies a linear equation

Age-Related Vascular Stiffening: Causes and Consequences

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2015
Arterial stiffening occurs with age and is closely associated with the progression of cardiovascular disease. Stiffening is most often studied at the level of the whole vessel because increased stiffness of the large arteries can impose increased strain ...

Research progress on the application of the transpalatal arch in orthodontic clinics and its mechanical mechanism

open access: yes口腔疾病防治, 2023
The transpalatal arch (TPA) is widely used in clinical orthodontics for various purposes. This article reviews the versatile clinical uses and mechanics of TPAs for clinical reference. Traditionally, TPA is conceived as an anchorage reinforcement device.

DNA under Force: Mechanics, Electrostatics, and Hydration

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2015
Quantifying the basic intra- and inter-molecular forces of DNA has helped us to better understand and further predict the behavior of DNA. Single molecule technique elucidates the mechanics of DNA under applied external forces, sometimes under extreme ...
