Stability of proinsulin in whole blood [PDF]
Proinsulin, the precursor for insulin, is secreted in higher concentrations when β-cells are under stress and previous studies have shown that elevated proinsulin could be used as a marker for individuals in a pre-diabetic state. The aim of this study was to assess the stability of proinsulin across a wide concentration range (3-882 and 2-187pmol/L ...

Immersed boundary simulations of cell-cell interactions in whole blood [PDF]
We present a new method for the geometric reconstruction of elastic surfaces simulated by the immersed boundary method with the goal of simulating the motion and interactions of cells in whole blood. Our method uses parameter-free radial basis functions for high-order meshless parametric reconstruction of point clouds and the elastic force computations
