Amoeboid cell migration and shape dynamics driven by actin polymerization
Winfried Schmidt, Chaouqi Misbah, Alexander Farutin
Cell migration is fundamental to development, tissue organization, immune response, and disease progression. Amoeboid motility is distinguished by rapid motion and strongly fluctua…
When Blood Parts Ways: Phase Separation in Microstructured Environments
Sampad Laha, Ananta Kumar Nayak, Alexander Farutin +2
Understanding how red blood cell (RBC) suspensions navigate porous materials is critical for for both fundamental physiology, such as maternal-fetal exchange in the placenta, and t…
Red blood cells aggregates transport for finite concentration
Mehdi Abbasi, Chaouqi Misbah
Red blood cells (RBCs) are responsible for transporting oxygen and various metabolites to tissues and organs, as well as removing waste. Several cardiovascular diseases can impair…
Towards a universal law for blood flow
Alexander Farutin, Abdessamad Nait-Ouhra, Gopal Dixit +4
Despite decades of research on blood flow, an analogue of Navier-Stokes equations that accurately describe blood flow properties has not been established yet. The reason behind thi…
Glycocalyx Cleavage Boosts Erythrocytes Aggregation
Mehdi Abbasi, Min Jin, Yazdan Rashidi +3
The glycocalyx is a complex layer of carbohydrate and protein molecules that surrounds the cell membrane of many types of mammalian cells. It serves several important functions, in…
Direct measurement of the viscocapillary lift force near a liquid interface
Hao Zhang, Zaicheng Zhang, Aditya Jha +5
Lift force of viscous origin is widespread across disciplines, from mechanics to biology. Here, we present the first direct measurement of the lift force acting on a particle movin…
