Muscle activation variability is inversely correlated with walking speed

Auke Ijspeert, Florin Dzeladini, Cole Stewart Simpson, Amandine Grappe

Individuals with motor impairments typically walk at much slower speeds than their unimpaired counter- parts, yet their gait data is still evaluated against the relatively faster gait of healthy subjects. Therefore a good understanding of unimpaired gait a ...

Benzimidazole derivative small-molecule 991 enhances AMPK activity and glucose uptake induced by AICAR or contraction in skeletal muscle

Kei Sakamoto, Maria Deak, Caterina Collodet, Laurent Bultot

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays diverse roles and coordinates complex metabolic pathways for maintenance of energy homeostasis. This could be explained by the fact that AMPK exists as multiple heterotrimer complexes comprising a catalytic alpha-s ...

Evaluation of the effects of the Arm Light Exoskeleton on movement execution and muscle activities: a pilot study on healthy subjects

Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia, Massimo Bergamasco

Background: Exoskeletons for lower and upper extremities have been introduced in neurorehabilitation because they can guide the patient's limb following its anatomy, covering many degrees of freedom and most of its natural workspace, and allowing the contr ...

Intercellular ultrafast Ca2+ wave in vascular smooth muscle cells: numerical and experimental study

Jean-Jacques Meister, Niccolo Piacentini, Franck Claude Raynaud, Jairo Camilo Quijano Perez

Vascular smooth muscle cells exhibit intercellular Ca2+ waves in response to local mechanical or KCl stimulation. Recently, a new type of intercellular Ca2+ wave was observed in vitro in a linear arrangement of smooth muscle cells. The intercellular wave w ...

MATHICSE Technical Report : Integrated Heart – Coupling multiscale and multiphysics models for the simulation of the cardiac function

Alfio Quarteroni, Ricardo Esteban Ruiz Baier, Toni Mikael Lassila, Simone Rossi

Mathematical modelling of the human heart and its function can expand our understanding of various cardiac diseases, which remain the most common cause of death in the developed world. Like other physiological systems, the heart can be understood as a comp ...

Engineered acellular collagen scaffold for endogenous cell guidance, a novel approach in urethral regeneration

Peter Frey, Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Hans Mattias Larsson, Elif Vardar, Kalitha Pinnagoda, Ganesh Vythilingam

The treatment of congenital malformations or injuries of the urethra using existing autologous tissues can be associated with post-operative complications. Using rat-tail collagen, we have engineered an acellular high-density collagen tube. These tubes wer ...

Glutathione deficit affects the integrity and function of the fimbria/fornix and anterior commissure in mice: relevance for schizophrenia

Rolf Gruetter, Yohan Van de Looij, Aline Monin, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Kim Do, Alberto Corcoba

BACKGROUND: Structural anomalies of white matter (WM) are found in various brain regions of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar and other psychiatric disorders, but the causes at cellular and molecular levels remain unclear. Oxidative stress and redox dys ...

A coupled 3D-1D numerical monodomain solver for cardiac electrical activation in the myocardium with detailed Purkinje network

Alfio Quarteroni, Christian Vergara, Toni Mikael Lassila

We present a model for the electrophysiology in the heart to handle the electrical propagation through the Purkinje system and in the myocardium, with two-way coupling at the Purkinje-muscle junctions. In both the subproblems the monodomain model is consid ...

Treatment with the GPR55 antagonist CID16020046 increases neutrophil activation in mouse atherogenesis

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Endocannabinoids modulate atherogenesis by triggering different receptors. Recently, orphan G protein-coupled receptors (GPRs) were suggested to be activated by endocannabinoids, possibly regulating vasorelaxation. Here, we investigated whether GPR55 antag ...
