S09-03 Tissue tectonics: Morphogenetic strain rates, cell shape change and intercalation
Most biochemical compounds absorb light and suffer phototoxic degradation, which induces malfunction or death of a specimen. The situation is particularly dramatic in conventional and confocal fluorescence microscopy. Even though only a single plane is observed, the entire specimen is illuminated. Recording stacks of images along the optical z-axis thus illuminates the entire specimen once for ...
متن کاملRecapitulation of morphogenetic cell shape changes enables wound re-epithelialisation
Wound repair is a fundamental, conserved mechanism for maintaining tissue homeostasis and shares many parallels with embryonic morphogenesis. Small wounds in simple epithelia rapidly assemble a contractile actomyosin cable at their leading edge, as well as dynamic filopodia that finally knit the wound edges together. Most studies of wound re-epithelialisation have focused on the actin machineri...
متن کاملShape-dependent bounds on cell growth rates
I consider how cell shape and environmental geometry affect the rate of nutrient capture and the consequent maximum growth rate of a cell, focusing on rod-like species like E. coli. Simple modeling immediately implies that it is the elongated profiles of such cells that allows for them to grow – as observed – at exponential rates in nutrient-rich media. Growth is strongly suppressed when nutrie...
متن کاملAging and Pension reform with Change contribution rates
Increased life expectancy and reduced fertility rates have led to aging which is one of the main causes of the pension funds imbalances in Iran’s pension funds. In order to resolve these imbalances, some reforms are required. The first option is to use parametric reforms, such as changing contribution rates of the pension system. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of aging and c...
