Stretch-induced stress fiber remodeling and the activations of JNK and ERK depend on mechanical strain rate, but not FAK. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: Cells within tissues are subjected to mechanical forces caused by extracellular matrix deformation. Cells sense and dynamically respond to stretching of the matrix by reorienting their actin stress fibers and by activating intracellular ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Effects of strain rate and timing of ramp-stretch on temporal dynamics of the stress-response. [PDF]
A) The average (±SEM) values for t12 (half-time of stress decay) are plotted against the time-to-stretch, following the load clamp, for a series of strain rates.

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2015 In osteoblast cells, cells change their intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) as the response to mechanical stimuli. Although it has been reported that osteoblast cells responded to many kinds of mechanical stimuli including stretch of substrate ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Effects of strain rate and timing of ramp-stretch on magnitude of the stress-response. [PDF]
A) Average (±SEM) peak stress values are plotted against time-to-stretch, where each group represents a different strain rate. Peak-stress decreases as time-to-peak increases for each strain rate, consistent with the example data shown in Fig 2.

Dynamic Behavior of a Freely-Propagating Turbulent Premixed Flame under Global Stretch-Rate Oscillations [PDF]
, 2009 International audienceDynamic features of a freely propagating turbulent premixed flame under global stretch rate oscillations were investigated by utilizing a jet-type low-swirl burner equipped with a high-speed valve on the swirl jet line.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
