By superimposing the results, the tissue stress and strain distributions could also be calculated for other force directions. Further analyses of results were concentrated on a trabecular volume of interest (VOI) located in the center of the head. For the stance phase of walking an a...
Abstract To measure electrophysiological signals from the human body, it is essential to establish stable, gentle and nonallergic contacts between the targeted biological tissue and the electrical probes. However, it is difficult to form a stable interface between the two for long periods, especially ...
In this context, the field of bone tissue engineering (BTE) aims at developing new strategies to render scaffold platforms that mimic not only the structure and composition of the ECM but also its functionality. Such a challenge is achieved by embedding a wide range of bioactive agents such as...
Take surgery as example, it usually involves damage to tissues thus creates access to the outside, and accompanied by postoperative inflammation reactions and continuous exudation of blood and tissue fluid, which will increase the risk of infection if the wound is not effectively closed in time [...
Tissue-like cultured meats of some livestock have successfully been established by different approaches. However, the production of a structure similar to fish fillets is still challenging. Here, we develop tissue-like cultured fish fillets by assembly o
The purpose was to examine tissue regeneration and the effectiveness of early versus delayed rehabilitation onset on functional and structural recovery after strain injuries. A total of 50 recreational athletes with a severe acute strain injury in their thigh or calf muscles were randomized to early ...
When you strain a muscle, your body will react a few different ways depending on how severe the tear is. You might experience: Swelling in the area of the tear Muscle spasmsorcramps Loss of muscle function A decrease in muscle strength ...
We crossed Plin1-dCreER mice with an R26-tdTomato reporter mouse strain and treated the offspring Plin1-dCreER;R26-tdTomato mice with Tam. As expected, tdT+ signals were detected in intracapsular BAT, ingWAT, and epididymal WAT (epiWAT) in the Tam-treated groups (Figure 4B). ...
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) relieves motor dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease, and other movement disorders. Here, we demonstrate the potential benefits of DBS in a model of ataxia by targeting the cerebellum, a major motor center in the brain. We use
Here we use two-photon microscopy in parallel with behavioral assays in zebrafish to show that the M-axon can regenerate very rapidly and that the recovery of functionality lags by just days. However, we also find that the site of the injury is critical: While regeneration is poor both ...
