... of this mechanism, but they also suggested that other mechanisms probably are involved. Myosin-based contraction serves as a fundamental force-generating process during morphogenesis [ 27–29 ]. Recent studies have shown, however, that c-looping in both whole chick embryos and isolated hearts does not require...

This study shows that a combination of experimental and computational mechanics can be used to evaluate competing hypotheses of morphogenesis, and illuminate the biomechanics of cortical folding. biomechanics brain medical disorders neurophysiology Taker together with the dissection results...

... of early brain morphogenesis. All the samples in Figs. 1 2 were imaged with a video camera (COHU, Model 4915, San Diego, CA) mounted on a dissecting microscope (Leica Microsystems, Model MZ8, Bannockburn, IL). Images were acquired by a frame grabber (FlashBus MV, Integral Technologies, Indianapolis...

...Helen H. Chen; G. Wayne Brodland A new cell-level finite element formulation is presented and used to investigate how epithelia and other planar collections of viscous cells might deform during events such as embryo morphogenesis and wound healing. Forces arising from cytoskeletal components...
