When looking at the anterior aspect of knee joint anatomy, you will find the patella (kneecap). The patella is a small, triangular bone which sits in the quadriceps muscle at the front of the knee. The kneecap is lined with cartilage which is actually the thickest cartilage in the whole...
The ANP/pGC-A signaling pathway lowers blood volume and blood pressure by increasing sodium/water excretion, vasorelaxation of vascular smooth muscle cells, increasing endothelial permeability and suppressing aldosterone13,15,16. Indeed, these actions of ANP have resulted recently in the engineering of ...
proposed a cyclic origami structure for rotorcraft collision protection, which is a variation of the classic Miura-Ori pattern [26]. The cyclic structure can contract and extend radially under actuation. The origami structure can also be fabricated as an artificial muscle. When the wavy origami ...

1a); an extreme example of this molecular architecture is exhibited by the giant, multidomain muscle protein titin [5]. At the cell surface, the longest of the linear-type IgSF proteins identified to date is sialoadhesin (siglec-1), with an extracellular region consisting of 17 Ig-like ...
Problem to be solved: to provide a fixing structure of the pillar main muscle which can easily be fixed to the main shaft. The fixing structure of the pillar main reinforcement 14 includes a steel frame 12 constituting a steel reinforced concrete column 10, a diaphragm 22 provided on the ...
Transgenic Caenorhabiditis elegans that express the 42-residue peptide of Aβ in their body wall muscle cells suffer an age-related paralysis that is accompanied by Aβ amyloid deposits. In this C. elegans model of Aβ toxicity, two opposing protective pathways have been identified in the prot...
Multiple sequence alignments were performed with MUSCLE48 and displayed with Jalview49. Sequence conservation was calculated using the ConSurf server50, while residue-specific solvent accessibilities (SASA) were obtained with ASA-View51. The Ub binding score was calculated by analyzing the residue-...
