Stretching rates and equivalent length near the tropopause [PDF]
Diagnostics of mixing in the upper troposphere/lower stratosphere region reveal interesting seasonal and interannual variability and illustrate how the subtropical tropopause can be identified with a region of minimum mixing, a partial barrier to the transport of air between the troposphere and stratosphere.

Predicted time evolutions of SF stretch and turnover rate in response to different frequencies of uniaxial stretch. [PDF]
The maximum and minimum values of the population-averaged fiber stretch during a cycle (A) and the rate of SF turnover (B) are shown for simulations of 10% cyclic uniaxial stretch at frequencies of 1 (red), 0.1 (blue) and 0.01 Hz (black) using the ...

Predicted time evolutions of circular variance, SF stretch and fiber turnover rate in response to different frequencies of equibiaxial stretch. [PDF]
The circular variance (A), the maximum and minimum values of the population-averaged fiber stretch during a cycle (B), and the rate of stress fiber turnover (C) are shown for simulations of 10% cyclic equibiaxial stretch at frequencies of 1 (red), 0.1 ...

Cyclic stretch increases splicing noise rate in cultured human fibroblasts
Background Mechanical forces are known to alter the expression of genes, but it has so far not been reported whether they may influence the fidelity of nucleus-based processes.

Physical Biology of Axonal Damage
Excessive physical impacts to the head have direct implications on the structural integrity at the axonal level. Increasing evidence suggests that tau, an intrinsically disordered protein that stabilizes axonal microtubules, plays a critical role in the ...

Ranolazine-Mediated Attenuation of Mechanoelectric Feedback in Atrial Myocyte Monolayers
BackgroundMechanical stretch increases Na+ inflow into myocytes, related to mechanisms including stretch-activated channels or Na+/H+ exchanger activation, involving Ca2+ increase that leads to changes in electrophysiological properties favoring ...
