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.

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 ...

Mechanisms of Intragastric pH Sensing [PDF]
Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2010 Luminal amino acids and lack of luminal acidity as a result of acid neutralization by intragastric foodstuffs are powerful signals for acid secretion. Although the hormonal and neural pathways underlying this regulatory mechanism are well understood, the nature of the gastric luminal pH sensor has been enigmatic.

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.
