Investigating membrane breakdown of neuronal cells exposed to nonuniform electric fields by finite-element modeling and experiments [PDF]
, 2002 High electric field strengths may induce high cell membrane potentials. At a certain breakdown level the membrane potential becomes constant due to the transition from an insulating state into a high conductivity and high permeability state.

Unruptured intracranial aneurysms--risk of rupture and risks of surgical intervention.
New England Journal of Medicine, 1998 BACKGROUND The management of unruptured intracranial aneurysms requires knowledge of the natural history of these lesions and the risks of repairing them.

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Migration of a Ruptured, Silicone Gel-Filled Breast Implant into Sternal and Abdominal Areas [PDF]
Archives of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2014 A 50-year-old woman visited our hospital for two palpable masses on her sternal and left upper abdominal areas. She had augmentation mammoplasty 12 years prior. Based on the physical examination, the mass in the sternal area was firm, movable, and round.

The biomechanics of amnion rupture: an X-ray diffraction study [PDF]
, 2007 Pre-term birth is the leading cause of perinatal and neonatal mortality, 40% of which are attributed to the pre-term premature rupture of amnion. Rupture of amnion is thought to be associated with a corresponding decrease in the extracellular collagen ...

Chronic inflammation is a feature of Achilles tendinopathy and rupture
British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2017 Background Recent investigation of human tissue and cells from positional tendons such as the rotator cuff has clarified the importance of inflammation in the development and progression of tendon disease.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Nuclear envelope rupture is induced by actin-based nucleus confinement
Journal of Cell Biology, 2016 Repeated rounds of nuclear envelope (NE) rupture and repair have been observed in laminopathy and cancer cells and result in intermittent loss of nucleus compartmentalization. Currently, the causes of NE rupture are unclear.

FEBS 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 ...
