Sentence examples for strength of cells from inspiring English sources

It has recently been shown that A-type lamins directly influence the organisation of the cytoskeleton, the tensile strength of cells [46] and their ability to respond to stress [10].

The energy curves in the OT and COT structures indicated that the tensile actin filaments contribute to the major strength of cells, while the compressive microtubules stabilize the cell structure (Figs. 2D and 5).

Jcell,cell represents the adhesion strength between cells, and Jcell,ECM the adhesion strength of cells to the ECM.

Conversely, SERPINE 1 is also thought to have a role other than a protease inhibitor as it has been shown to decrease the adhesive strength of cells to their substratum.

Using vinculin knock-out MEF and RNAi knock-down, others have demonstrated that vinculin contributes approximately 30% to the adhesion strength of cells upon generation of a 200 nN adhesive force (Gallant et al., 2005).

Because secondary wall deposition increases the tensile strength of cells, fibres which have undergone even the very first stages of cell wall thickening can be distinguished mechanically by their resistance to breakage at the "snap-point" of the stem [ 7].

RhoA activity correlated inversely with the strength of cell adhesion to the substrates.

The strength of cell adhesion onto gels was assessed via a centrifugation assay.

It has been found previously that the increase in the disorder strength of cell nanoarchitecture is one of the earliest events in carcinogenesis.

Since the cell wall is the first line of defense against external stresses, the strength of cell wall and the effective cell wall remodeling may be essential for tolerance to various environmental stresses.

The initial cell attachment behavior, especially the strength of cell adhesion to the material surface, was evaluated quantitatively by determining the slope of the Df plots using the QCM-D system.
