Tissue integrity: Hemidesmosomes and resistance to stress
How do animal tissues resist the shearing forces to which they are exposed during locomotion or harsh encounters with the environment? Genetic analysis in Caenorhabditis elegans is furthering our understanding of the nature and function of the attachments that preserve tissue integrity.
متن کاملThermal Stress Resistance to Fracture and its Relation to with Resistance to Thermal Fatigue and Shock
Dense Silicon nitride was investigated to determine the effect of its microstructural parameters and densification on thermo-mechanical properties and thermal stress resistance to fracture initiation during a hot or cold mechanical and thermal shock testing. The different materials and microstructures were obtained by changing the parameters such as the type of the powder, additive, forming p...

متن کاملRestoring hemidesmosomes to prevent cancer cell invasiveness
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a dismal survival rate. Patients are diagnosed at either a local invasive or metastatic stage, but will ultimately dye within five years after diagnosis. This dismal prognosis is first the result of a late diagnosis. Symptoms appear when the primary tumor has already spread out and specific diagnosis tools such as imaging techniques or biomarkers enab...
متن کاملMacrophages: gatekeepers of tissue integrity.
Macrophages form a heterogeneous group of hematopoietic cells that reside in tissues, where they are required to maintain organ integrity. Tissue macrophages contribute to tissue formation, metabolism, homeostasis, and repair. They have a unique ability to sense and respond to tissue damage. They serve as the first line of defense during infection and help promote immune tolerance in the steady...
