Effect of Serum Starvation on Rheology of Cell Monolayers [PDF]
, 2021 The rheological properties of cells and tissues are central to embryonic development and homoeostasis in adult tissues and organs and are closely related to their physiological activities. In this work, we present our study of rheological experiments on cell monolayer under serum starvation compared to that of healthy cell monolayer with full serum ...

Density-dependent and independent mechanisms jointly reduce species performance under nitrogen enrichment [PDF]
, 2023 Nitrogen (N) deposition is a primary driver of species loss in plant communities globally. However, the mechanisms by which high N availability causes species loss remain unclear. Many hypotheses for species loss with increasing N availability highlight density-dependent mechanisms, i.e., changes in species interactions.
