Small deformations of polygons
We describe the first-order variations of the angles of Euclidean, spherical or hyperbolic polygons under infinitesimal deformations such that the lengths of the edges do not change. Using this description, we introduce a vector-valued quadratic invariant b on the space of those isometric deformations which, for convex polygons, has a remarkable positivity property. We give two geometric applic...
متن کاملThe effect of olive extract on human neutrophils
The neutrophil respiratory burst, which is essential for the host's ability to kill microorganisms, can be stimulated by some natural agents. Olea europaea (Oleaceae) is used as anti hypertensive, hyperglycemia, and hypercholestremia in traditional medicine. Here in this study, we evaluate the stimulatory effect of olive oil extract on oxidative burst in human neutrophils in vitro. Buffy coat w...

متن کاملA nonlinear model of passive muscle viscosity.
The material properties of passive skeletal muscle are critical to proper function and are frequently a target for therapeutic and interventional strategies. Investigations into the passive viscoelasticity of muscle have primarily focused on characterizing the elastic behavior, largely neglecting the viscous component. However, viscosity is a sizeable contributor to muscle stress and extensibil...
متن کاملActivation of the small GTPase rap1 in human neutrophils.
The small GTPase Rap1 is highly expressed in human neutrophils, but its function is largely unknown. Using the Rap1-binding domain of RalGDS (RalGDS-RBD) as an activation-specific probe for Rap1, we have investigated the regulation of Rap1 activity in primary human neutrophils. We found that a variety of stimuli involved in neutrophil activation, including fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP), platelet-activati...
