Hypothalamic glucose-sensing mechanisms [PDF]
Diabetologia, 2021 Chronic metabolic diseases, including diabetes and obesity, have become a major global health threat of the twenty-first century. Maintaining glucose homeostasis is essential for survival in mammals. Complex and highly coordinated interactions between glucose-sensing mechanisms and multiple effector systems are essential for controlling glucose levels ...

Acute Oxygen-Sensing Mechanisms [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 2005 This review discusses recent advances in the understanding of the ways in which different organs detect and respond to acute changes in oxygen tension. A group of specialized tissues constitutes an oxygen-sensing system that responds rapidly to even minor changes in oxygen tension.

Microbial Mechanisms of Heat Sensing [PDF]
Indian Journal of Microbiology, 2022 Temperature is one of the ubiquitous signals that control both the development as well as virulence of various microbial species. Therefore their survival is dependent upon initiating appropriate response upon temperature fluctuations. In particular, pathogenic microbes exploit host-temperature sensing mechanisms for triggering the expression of ...

Nutrient-Sensing Mechanisms across Evolution [PDF]
Cell, 2015 For organisms to coordinate their growth and development with nutrient availability, they must be able to sense nutrient levels in their environment. Here, we review select nutrient-sensing mechanisms in a few diverse organisms. We discuss how these mechanisms reflect the nutrient requirements of specific species and how they have adapted to the ...

A bistable soft gripper with mechanically embedded sensing and actuation for fast closed-loop grasping [PDF]
, 2019 Soft robotic grippers are shown to be high effective for grasping unstructured objects with simple sensing and control strategies. However, they are still limited by their speed, sensing capabilities and actuation mechanism.

Cognitive node selection and assignment algorithms for weighted cooperative sensing in radar systems [PDF]
, 2009 For the radar spectrum to be shared efficiently a good sensing capability within a secondary cognitive communication system is required. In this paper, the swept radar's rotation mechanism is explored to improve the sensing performance.
