Plecstatin inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma tumorigenesis and invasion through cytolinker plectin

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The ruthenium‐based metallodrug plecstatin exerts its anticancer effect in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) primarily through selective targeting of plectin. By disrupting plectin‐mediated cytoskeletal organization, plecstatin inhibits anchorage‐dependent growth, cell polarization, and tumor cell dissemination.

Dynamic model of fiber bundles

open access: yes, 2004
A realistic continuous-time dynamics for fiber bundles is introduced and studied both analytically and numerically. The equation of motion reproduces known stationary-state results in the deterministic limit while the system under non-vanishing stress ...

Focal adhesions as mechanosensors: the two-spring model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Adhesion-dependent cells actively sense the mechanical properties of their environment through mechanotransductory processes at focal adhesions, which are integrin-based contacts connecting the extracellular matrix to the cytoskeleton.

Intraoperative rupture cerebral aneurysm and computational flow dynamics

open access: yesAsian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2018
Intraoperative aneurysmal rupture (IAR) is the most fearsome complication of aneurysm surgery. IAR associates with high morbidity and mortality. In recent years, we have many studies regarding using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in aneurysm surgery.

Ultrafast ultrasound captures dynamic rupture behavior [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of Meetings on Acoustics, 2018
We apply shear wave elastography, a medical imaging technique that uses ultrafast ultrasound to analyze rupture nucleation. In order to better understand friction and rupture processes which are responsible for earthquake nucleation, we build a laboratory experiment that reproduces the stick-slip behavior of a seismic fault for soft elastic materials ...

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Quasi-static stationary-periodic model of percussive deep drilling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Copyright @ 2005 Patron EditoreIn the percussively deep drilling, the rock is modeled by an infinite elastic medium with a semi-infinite cylindrical bore-hole having a curvilinear bottom.

On the speed of fast and slow rupture fronts along frictional interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The transition from stick to slip at a dry frictional interface occurs through the breaking of the junctions between the two contacting surfaces. Typically, interactions between the junctions through the bulk lead to rupture fronts propagating from weak ...

Analysis of the wall thickness of intracranial aneurysms: Can computational fluid dynamics detect the translucent areas of saccular intracranial aneurysms and predict the rupture risk preoperatively?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
Background and purposeThe translucent area on the surface of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) is associated with rupture risk. In the present study, the Polyflow module of the Ansys software was used to simulate and analyze the thickness of the aneurysm wall

Stochastic Dynamics for Earthquake Ruptures

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we propose a stochastic dynamic model for earthquake rupture and suggest that the Langevin equation of frictions may be used for interpreting the slip distributions of rupture processes in earthquakes. The steady-state solution of the derived Langevin equation analytically attains the truncated exponential (TEX) distribution that is ...
