Effects of increasing concentrations of TA1 or dobutamine on contractile function, phosphocreatine and ATP concentrations, and ATP production were assessed by 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance ...

This paper presents the first investigation into the MRI compatibility of a recently developed linear contractile actuator made of a silicone elastomer. The apparent absence of any degradation of both ...

Background Delayed recovery of contractile function in spite of normal perfusion (ie, “stunning”) has been described in animal models of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. Therefore, we ...

Symmetry is a fundamental characteristic of most multi-cell animals. However, the cell division of embryonic cells is ...

A 3D engineered kidney glomerulus model replicates structural and mechanical features of the glomerular filtration barrier, ...
