Sentence examples for behavior of a tissue from inspiring English sources

We thus propose VEGF cleavage is not mediated by single cells but rather by the collective behavior of a tissue, dependent upon total cell density and the whole-tissue MMP concentration.

Traits such as cancer, developmental defects, escape from drug treatment, or latency of infections can rely on one or few cells that did not follow the average behavior of a tissue.

In plants the coordination of cellular behavior within a tissue is intrinsically linked to cell wall biogenesis and dynamics, as plant cells are connected through semi-rigid cell walls that drastically limit their relative movement.

A biphasic hyperelastic model for the mechanical behavior of brain tissue in a spherically symmetric geometry was used to determine fluid and mass transport, as well as the associated tissue deformation, during convection-enhanced delivery of an infused therapeutic agent (Garcia and Smith 2009).

As well as modeling tissue properties as complex, it should also be possible to examine the transient behavior of excitable tissue using a Hodgkin–Huxley-like model [47].

Here we use electrically stimulated contractions to test whether two mechanical models of the behaviors driving contractions can predict the behavior of the tissue as a function of applied suction.

To determine whether the complex internal structure and regulation of an embryonic tissue produces complex mechanical behavior of the tissue, we focus on an embryonic tissue in a vertebrate model system, Xenopus laevis; specifically, the tissue above the blastopore on the dorsal side of the gastrulating embryo (the dorsal marginal zone; Fig. 1A).

In 1999 Wilson presented a simplified form of neural equations [29] describing the collective behavior of cortical tissue in terms of a discrete network of laterally connected localized aggregates of E and I populations representing cortical columns.

The mechanical behavior of a complex, active embryonic tissue can be surprisingly well described by a simple linear viscoelastic model with power law creep compliance, even at high deformations.

Planar cell polarity (PCP) describes the polarization of cell structures and behaviors within the plane of a tissue.

Therefore, the observed relaxation behavior of tissue becomes a function of the R1 value in the blood and the rate at which water exchanges across the capillary wall [ 33].
