Spontaneous symmetry breaking in active droplets provides a generic route to motility
We explore a generic mechanism whereby a droplet of active matter acquires motility by the spontaneous breakdown of a discrete symmetry. The model we study offers a simple representation of a "cell extract" comprising, e.g., a droplet of actomyosin ...

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

Evidence of the presence of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV in human sperm and its involvement in motility regulation [PDF]
The mechanisms involved in the regulation of mammalian sperm motility are not well understood. Calcium ions (Ca(2+)) have been suggested to play a key role in the maintenance of motility; nevertheless, how Ca(2+) modulates this process has not yet been ...

ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.

Quantification of Cell Movement Reveals Distinct Edge Motility Types During Cell Spreading [PDF]
Actin-based motility is central to cellular processes such as migration, bacterial engulfment, and cancer metastasis, and requires precise spatial and temporal regulation of the cytoskeleton.
