Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...

Nasal Septal Mucocele Causing Saddle Nose Deformity

open access: yesThe Permanente Journal, 2022
Nasal septal mucoceles are a rare occurance, and reports in the current literature are limited. We describe the case of a 73-year-old woman who developed a nasal septal mucocele several days after an episode of angioedema. The lesion was treated with 2 rounds of needle aspiration with antibiotics and the application of silastic splints.
