Correlations between the clinical characteristics of diabetic trochlear nerve palsy and diplopia severity

open access: yesBMC Ophthalmology
Importance Few literatures reported the clinical characteristics of diabetic trochlear nerve palsy, including demographic characteristics, involvement between both eyes, time of symptom onset, duration of diabetes, etc. Whether there is relevance between

The myosin X motor is optimized for movement on actin bundles

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Myosin X is a molecular motor unique in its ability to generate filopodia, but the mechanism explaining this behaviour is not known. Here, through a combination of structure, single-molecule assays and modelling the authors show that myosin X is ...

P-27 CELLULAR EFFECTS OF IN VITRO LIPID OVERLOAD ON HEPATIC STELLATE CELLS AND HEPATOCYTES.

open access: yesAnnals of Hepatology, 2023
Introduction and Objectives: Hepatic cells undergo different processes in response to the steatogenic input of MAFLD. Hepatic cell culture in steatogenic medium is a useful, reproducible tool intended to elucidate these pathogenic mechanisms.

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

How bacterial cells and colonies move on solid substrates

open access: yes, 2019
Many bacteria rely on active cell appendages, such as type IV pili, to move over substrates and interact with neighboring cells. Here, we study the motion of individual cells and bacterial colonies, mediated by the collective interactions of multiple ...

Mechanics and polarity in cell motility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The motility of a fish keratocyte on a flat substrate exhibits two distinct regimes: the non-migrating and the migrating one. In both configurations the shape is fixed in time and, when the cell is moving, the velocity is constant in magnitude and ...

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

Cryo-EM structure of the folded-back state of human β-cardiac myosin

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
To save energy and precisely regulate cardiac contractility, cardiac muscle myosin heads are sequestered in an ‘off’ state that can be converted to an ‘on’ state when exertion is increased. The ‘off’ state is equated with a folded-back structure known as

Syntaphilin Ubiquitination Regulates Mitochondrial Dynamics and Tumor Cell Movements. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Syntaphilin (SNPH) inhibits the movement of mitochondria in tumor cells, preventing their accumulation at the cortical cytoskeleton and limiting the bioenergetics of cell motility and invasion. Although this may suppress metastasis, the regulation of the
