Scale-free flocking and giant fluctuations in epithelial active solids
Yuan Shen, Jérémy O'Byrne, Andreas Schoenit +4
The collective motion of epithelial cells is a fundamental biological process which plays a significant role in embryogenesis, wound healing and tumor metastasis. While it has been…
Rotation-Beating dynamics of a driven flexible filament: role of motor protein properties
Amir Khosravanizadeh, Serge Dmitrieff
We have used numerical simulations to investigate how the properties of motor proteins control the dynamical behavior of a driven flexible filament. The filament is pinned at one e…
The size of the Sun
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille
Why does the Sun have a radius around 696000~km? We will see in this article that dimensional arguments can be used to understand the size of the Sun and of a few other things alon…
Dynamic duos: the building blocks of dimensional mechanics
Marc-Antoine Fardin, Mathieu Hautefeuille, Vivek Sharma
Mechanics studies the relationships between space, time, and matter, which can be expressed in terms of the dimensions of length , time , and mass $\mathc…
N,N,N-Trimethyl chitosan as a permeation enhancer for inhalation drug delivery: interaction with a model pulmonary surfactant
Jana Szabová, Filip Mravec, Mostafa Mokhtari +3
N,N,N-Trimethyl chitosan (TMC), a biocompatible and biodegradable derivative of chitosan, is currently used as a permeation enhancer to increase the translocation of drugs to the b…
Models of Vimentin Organization Under Actin-Driven Transport
Youngmin Park, Cécile Leduc, Sandrine Etienne-Manneville +1
Intermediate filaments form an essential structural network, spread throughout the cytoplasm and play a key role in cell mechanics, intracellular organization and molecular signali…
