Nanowire Modification to Enhance the Performance of Neurotransmitter Sensors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, we have developed a method to modify the platinum (Pt) working electrode with nanowires using vapor-solid-liquid (VLS) mechanism in order to increase the sensitivity of our ...
Molecular Characterization of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition in Human Prostatic Epithelial Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been believed to play a critical role in cancer metastasis. TGFβ has been described as an inducer of EMT in normal mammary epithelial cells by ...
Demonstration of Cancer Cell Migration Using a Novel Microfluidic Device
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Migration of cancer cells from the primary organ site via the bloodstream to distant sites is critical to the development of malignant metastasis and is in part determined by soluble host ...
A Novel Multiwell Device to Study Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses Under Cyclic Strain
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are constantly exposed to cyclic stretch in the body, which makes it beneficial to study the effects of cyclic stretch on VSMCs. In this study, we developed ...
