Mussel ( Mytilus edulis ) byssus deposition in response to variations in surface wettability
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 3 Số 6 - Trang 37-43 - 2006
Nick Aldred, Linnea K. Ista, Maureen E. Callow, James A. Callow, Gabriel P. López, Anthony S. Clare
Mussels ( Mytilus edulis ) are economically important in their role as an aquaculture species and also with regard to marine biofouling. They attach tenaciously to a wide variety of submerged surfaces by virtue of collagenous attachment threads termed ‘byssi’. The aim of this study was to characterize the spreading of the byss...... hiện toàn bộ
Assessing the stability of human locomotion: a review of current measures
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 10 Số 83 - Trang 20120999 - 2013
Sjoerd M. Bruijn, Onno G. Meijer, Peter J. Beek, Jaap H. van Dieën
Falling poses a major threat to the steadily growing population of the elderly in modern-day society. A major challenge in the prevention of falls is the identification of individuals who are at risk of falling owing to an unstable gait. At present, several methods are available for estimating gait stability, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. In this paper, we re...... hiện toàn bộ
Control of human gait stability through foot placement
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 15 Số 143 - Trang 20170816 - 2018
Sjoerd M. Bruijn, Jaap H. van Dieën
During human walking, the centre of mass (CoM) is outside the base of support for most of the time, which poses a challenge to stabilizing the gait pattern. Nevertheless, most of us are able to walk without substantial problems. In this review, we aim to provide an integrative overview of how humans cope with an underactuated gait pattern. A central idea that emerges from the literature is...... hiện toàn bộ
Distributed robustness in cellular networks: insights from synthetic evolved circuits
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 6 Số 33 - Trang 393-400 - 2009
Javier Macía, Ricard V. Solé
Evolved natural systems are known to display some sort of distributed robustness against the loss of individual components. Such type of robustness is not just the result of redundancy. Instead, it seems to be based on degeneracy, i.e. the ability of elements that are structurally different to perform the same function or yield the same output. Here, we explore the problem of how relevant ...... hiện toàn bộ
Nano-sized manganese oxides as biomimetic catalysts for water oxidation in artificial photosynthesis: a review
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 9 Số 75 - Trang 2383-2395 - 2012
Mohammad Mahdi Najafpour, Fahimeh Rahimi, Eva‐Mari Aro, Choon-Hwan Lee, Suleyman I. Allakhverdiev
There has been a tremendous surge in research on the synthesis of various metal compounds aimed at simulating the water-oxidizing complex (WOC) of photosystem II (PSII). This is crucial because the water oxidation half reaction is overwhelmingly rate-limiting and needs high over-voltage (approx. 1 V), which results in low conversion efficiencies when working at current densities required f...... hiện toàn bộ
Complementary vasoactivity and matrix remodelling in arterial adaptations to altered flow and pressure
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 6 Số 32 - Trang 293-306 - 2009
Andreas Valentin, L. Cardamone, Seungik Baek, Jay D. Humphrey
Arteries exhibit a remarkable ability to adapt to sustained alterations in biomechanical loading, probably via mechanisms that are similarly involved in many arterial pathologies and responses to treatment. Of particular note, diverse data suggest that cell and matrix turnover within vasoaltered states enables arteries to adapt to sustained changes in blood flow and pressure. The goal here...... hiện toàn bộ
Mechanisms and causes of wear in tooth enamel: implications for hominin diets
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 10 Số 80 - Trang 20120923 - 2013
Peter W. Lucas, Ridwaan Omar, Khaled J. Al‐Fadhalah, Abdulwahab S. Almusallam, Amanda G. Henry, Shaji Michael, Lidia A. Thai, Jörg Watzke, David S. Strait, A.G. Atkins
The wear of teeth is a major factor limiting mammalian lifespans in the wild. One method of describing worn surfaces, dental microwear texture analysis, has proved powerful for reconstructing the diets of extinct vertebrates, but has yielded unexpected results in early hominins. In particular, although australopiths exhibit derived craniodental features interpreted as adaptations for eatin...... hiện toàn bộ
Probing in-mouth texture perception with a biomimetic tongue
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 16 Số 159 - Trang 20190362 - 2019
Jean-Baptiste Thomazo, Javier Contreras Pastenes, Christopher J. Pipe, Benjamin Le Révérend, Élie Wandersman, Alexis Prevost
An experimental biomimetic tongue–palate system has been developed to probe human in-mouth texture perception. Model tongues are made from soft elastomers patterned with fibrillar structures analogous to human filiform papillae. The palate is represented by a rigid flat plate parallel to the plane of the tongue. To probe the behaviour under physiological flow conditions, defle...... hiện toàn bộ
Co-culture systems and technologies: taking synthetic biology to the next level
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 11 Số 96 - Trang 20140065 - 2014
Lisa Goers, Paul S. Freemont, Karen M. Polizzi
Co-culture techniques find myriad applications in biology for studying natural or synthetic interactions between cell populations. Such techniques are of great importance in synthetic biology, as multi-species cell consortia and other natural or synthetic ecology systems are widely seen to hold enormous potential for foundational research as well as novel industrial, medical and environmen...... hiện toàn bộ
Challenges in tissue engineering
Journal of the Royal Society Interface - Tập 3 Số 10 - Trang 589-601 - 2006
Yoshito Ikada
Almost 30 years have passed since a term ‘tissue engineering’ was created to represent a new concept that focuses on regeneration of neotissues from cells with the support of biomaterials and growth factors. This interdisciplinary engineering has attracted much attention as a new therapeutic means that may overcome the drawbacks involved in the current artificial organs and organ transplan...... hiện toàn bộ
