In the present study, tumor cells changed their gene expression patterns when encountering substrates having rigidities in the MPa to GPa range, suggesting that the differential rigidity of the bone microenvironment may contribute to the initial establishment and function of tumor cells in bone.
Thus, resin composites should have good rigidity (to achieve adequate mechanical properties), but should not be too rigid (to minimize stresses) [29].
And they enable the cell to have some rigidity, to resist tensile forces, and actually to move.
Some of those patients say they have muscle rigidity that is not relieved effectively by other drugs, and in any case those drugs have unwanted side effects.
It turns out that, while complex geodesics are transcendental objects defined in terms of analysis and differential geometry, their closures are algebraic objects defined in terms of polynomials and therefore have certain rigidity properties.
Another reason is that many of his studio recordings have a rigidity to go with their precision, whereas, in concert, Pollini (who is seventy-six) pland and thinks dangerously, as he did on Sunday.
"The bad news is, it's so flexible and floppy that it doesn't have the rigidity needed to penetrate the brain tissue in the first place," Rogers told me.
As I have indicated, rigidity does interesting epistemological and metaphysical work.
We have ideological rigidity to thank for the Crusades, the Salem Witch Hunts, 9/11, and the Spanish Inquisition.
You have cogwheel rigidity, are affected on only one side--which is typical at first--and already have some facial masking".
