Rapid dynamics of cell-shape recovery in response to local deformations.
It is vital that cells respond rapidly to mechanical cues within their microenvironment through changes in cell shape and volume, which rely upon the mechanical properties of cells' highly interconnected cytoskeletal networks and intracellular fluid redistributions. While previous research has largely investigated deformation mechanics, we now focus on the immediate cell-shape recovery response...
متن کاملLory 1.0: Model-based Estimation of Local Shape Deformations
LORY implements the methods described in Marquez et al. (2012) for the estimation of shape variables that measure local differences in shape between individual samples and their Procrustes mean. “Local” refers herein to infinitesimal differences in shape mapped continuously over entire configurations; these differentials give rise to shape variables that differ from other variables such as Proc...
متن کاملRapid response of rice plants to arsenite toxicity
Absorption of arsenic (As) by plant root is an essential activity that bridges the soil As concentration and physiological responses which can be monitored soon after exposure to As. In the present study, physiological responses to short exposure to arsenite (AsIII) was compared in two indigenous rice cultivars one adapted to temperate and humid (TH) and the second one to warm and humid (WH) cl...
متن کاملCell Shape Dynamics: From Waves to Migration
We observe and quantify wave-like characteristics of amoeboid migration. Using the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, a model system for the study of chemotaxis, we demonstrate that cell shape changes in a wave-like manner. Cells have regions of high boundary curvature that propagate from the leading edge toward the back, usually along alternating sides of the cell. Curvature waves are easily see...
متن کاملRapid Mixing of Local Graph Dynamics
Graph dynamics arise naturally in many contexts. For instance in peer-to-peer networks, a participating peer may replace an existing connection with one neighbour by a new connection with a neighbour’s neighbour. Several such local rewiring rules have been proposed to ensure that peer-to-peer networks achieve good connectivity properties (e.g. high expansion) in equilibrium. However it has rema...
