"mechanical information" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to refer to knowledge or facts related to the science of mechanics or engineering. For example, "We need to access the mechanical information in order to design this widget."
In concert with the coagulation cascade, these receptors provide an elegant mechanism linking mechanical information in the form of tissue injury or vascular leakage to cellular responses.
As with biochemical signaling, there are clear mechanisms by which mechanical information can be transduced from cell surface receptors through the cytoskeleton and to the nucleus.
The cells that sense mechanical inputs to the bone are probably the osteocytes, which have a number of specialized mechanisms, both morphological and biochemical, to convey mechanical information to the effector cells, i.e. those that change bone mass, size, and shape.
Despite the importance of this relationship the mechanisms by which resident bone cells transduce mechanical information into biochemical responses and then process it into signals controlling the modeling and remodeling behaviour of osteocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, is obscure.
Thus the cell can be modeled as a vector field in which the mechanically linked cytoskeleton-NM-DNA may act as transducers of mechanical information.
Thus the cell can be modelled as a vector field in which the mechanically linked cytoskeleton-nucleoskeleton may act as coordinated transducers of mechanical information [ 55].
Indeed, a mechanism that would allow a cell to sense mechanical signals directly without reliance on matrix strain would obviate the need for compensatory tissue-level amplification mechanisms [9], reduce complexity in the system, and may provide cells with mechanical information without the potential for damaging the surrounding tissue.
The first large-scale mechanical information system was Herman Hollerith's census tabulator.
The basic problem was that black holes would suck in matter from space, but also quantum mechanical information.
Mechanical information is an important contributor to cell polarity in uni- and multicellular systems [1-3].
In apparent contrast, little is known about how dynamic protein structures respond to periodic mechanical information.
