Analysis of IFGN1 revealed known functional roles for this gene, including relation to muscle development and contraction as well as protein translation [60], [61].
The max dP/ dt and min dP/ dt are the maximum rates of pressure development during contraction and relaxation [ 26].
Maximal rate of pressure development for contraction (+dP/dtmax) and maximal rate of pressure development for relaxation (−dP/dtmax) were all calculated from the continuously collected pressure signal.
The relevance of the "focal adhesion" pathway, as well as the importance of "cytoskeleton", "muscle development", "muscle contraction", and "insulin signaling" pathways in cryptorchidism were widely discussed [ 7].
The presence of pathways related to "cytoskeleton", "muscle development", "muscle contraction", "focal adhesion", and "insulin signaling" was previously reported in rat [ 7].
As a ubiquitous intracellular messenger, Ca2+ has essential physiological roles in a variety of cellular processes including fertilization and development, muscle contraction and neurotransmitter release [ 1].
These data show that, overall, ELK1/4, SRF, and NKX2-5 regulate many generic cellular functions, while NKX2-5 and SRF also have more executive roles in regulating heart development and contraction.
In particular, the five pathways reported by Barthold et al. (2008) [ 7] in rat ("cytoskeleton", "muscle development", "muscle contraction", "focal adhesion", and "insulin signaling") were all confirmed in this independent validation analysis.
We first describe new developments of contraction theory regarding locally projected dynamical systems.
Among these: sensory perception, transmission of nerve impulse, muscle contraction, muscle development, nervous system development, skeletal development and digestion.
The plastic deformation involves affine expansion and contraction, development of crystallographic fault lines (slip planes), edge dislocations, curved lattice planes and longitudinal diffusion of chains out of the crystal.
