Expansion–contraction of photoresponsive artificial muscle regulated by host–guest interactions
The development of stimulus-responsive polymeric materials is of great importance, especially for the development of remotely manipulated materials not in direct contact with an actuator. Here we design a photoresponsive supramolecular actuator by integrating host-guest interactions and photoswitching ability in a hydrogel. A photoresponsive supramolecular hydrogel with α-cyclodextrin as a host...
متن کاملAre Heart Muscle Irisin Levels and FNDC5 Gene Expression Regulated by Endurance and Resistance Exercises?
Background. Irisin is the result of the proteolysis of fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5, the levels of which are determined by physical activity. Objective(s). This study aims to identify changes in FNDC5 gene expression and the heart muscle irisin levels in male rats following 8 weeks resistance and endurance training. Methods. Fifteen male rats (10-12 weeks old and 331.8&plu...
متن کاملPhotoresponsive pseudopolyrotaxane hydrogels based on competition of host-guest interactions.
Reversibility is a basic and crucial feature of supramolecular systems. In designing and fabricating new supramolecular materials, the realization of reversibility is particularly important as it could enable these substances to be superior to conventional materials. An excellent example is an elastomer reported recently, made of small functional molecules which form both long chains and cross-...
متن کاملA photoresponsive molecular switch. Reaction of COz and epoxide regulated by aluminum porphyrin-stilbazole system
A novel example of a ‘photoresponsive molecular switch’, the light-driven on-off switching system for chemical reaction, composed of aluminum porphyrin and stilbazole is found to regulate the reaction of carbon dioxide and propylene oxide to give propylene carbonate. The reaction is catalyzed by aluminum porphyrin through the photoisomerization of stilbazole. In the dark, the reaction of carbon...
متن کاملmRNA levels Are Regulated by Muscle Activity
Denervation of adult skeletal muscle results in increased sensitivity to acetylcholine in extrajunctional regions of the muscle fiber. This increase in acetylcholine sensitivity is accompanied by a large increase in the level of mRNAs coding for the a-, f3-, Y-, and S-subunits of the acetylcholine receptor. To determine whether muscle activity is sufficient to regulate expression of extrajuncti...
