Enhanced motility in a binary mixture of active nano/microswimmers [PDF]

open access: yesNanoscale 2020, 2020
It is often desirable to enhance the motility of active nano- or microscale swimmers such as, e.g., self-propelled Janus particles as agents of chemical reactions or weak sperm cells for better chances of successful fertilization. Here we tackle this problem based on the idea that motility can be transferred from a more active guest species to a less ...

Mechanistic and structural basis for activation of cardiac myosin force production by omecamtiv mecarbil

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Omecamtiv mecarbil (OM) is a cardiac myosin activator that is currently in clinical trials for heart failure treatment. Here, the authors give insights into its mode of action and present the crystal structure of OM bound to bovine cardiac myosin, which ...

Interactions of Little-brain and Big-brain in Explaining Abdominal Symptoms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2022
For a long time, the role of an extensive neurological network in the gut (the little-brain) has been under-recognized because the enteric nervous system (ENS) is thought to have little impact beyond digestion.

Frictional Active Brownian Particles

open access: yes, 2020
Frictional forces affect the rheology of hard-sphere colloids, at high shear rate. Here we demonstrate, via numerical simulations, that they also affect the dynamics of active Brownian particles, and their motility induced phase separation.

The Actin Cytoskeleton and Actin-Based Motility.

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2018
The actin cytoskeleton-a collection of actin filaments with their accessory and regulatory proteins-is the primary force-generating machinery in the cell.

Fixation eye movement abnormalities and stereopsis recovery following strabismus repair

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
We evaluated the effects of strabismus repair on fixational eye movements (FEMs) and stereopsis recovery in patients with fusion maldevelopment nystagmus (FMN) and patients without nystagmus.

Nucleotide-free structures of KIF20A illuminate atypical mechanochemistry in this kinesin-6

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2023
KIF20A is a critical kinesin for cell division and a promising anti-cancer drug target. The mechanisms underlying its cellular roles remain elusive. Interestingly, unusual coupling between the nucleotide- and microtubule-binding sites of this kinesin-6 ...
