Lipid-induced degradation in biocompatible poly(Styrene-Isobutylene-Styrene) (SIBS) thermoplastic elastomer

JOURNAL OF THE MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF BIOMEDICAL MATERIALS, 68, 80–87.

By: M. Fittipaldi* & L. Grace n

author keywords: Biocompatible; Lipids; Degradation; Relaxation; Polymer; Diffusion
MeSH headings : Biocompatible Materials / chemistry; Elastomers / chemistry; Lipids / chemistry; Materials Testing; Styrenes / chemistry
TL;DR: A decrease in tensile strength, loss of dynamic creep performance and faster relaxation with increasing lipid content is attributed to strong internal straining, suggesting that selection of these variables during the design phase should be based not only on the mechanical requirements of the application, but the expected degree of lipid exposure.

2017 journal article

What mechanisms of tau protein transport could be responsible for the inverted tau concentration gradient in degenerating axons?

MATHEMATICAL MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY-A JOURNAL OF THE IMA, 34(1), 125–150.

By: I. Kuznetsov & A. Kuznetsov

author keywords: neuron; tau protein; diffusion; motor-driven transport; Alzheimer's disease; mathematical modelling
MeSH headings : Alzheimer Disease / metabolism; Alzheimer Disease / pathology; Axonal Transport; Axons / metabolism; Axons / pathology; Humans; Models, Theoretical; Tauopathies / metabolism; Tauopathies / pathology; tau Proteins / metabolism
TL;DR: A mathematical model of tau transport in axons was developed and investigated whether tau detachment from MTs due to tau hyperphosphorylation can cause the inverted tau concentration gradient; it was demonstrated that in degenerating axons some tau remains bound to MTs and participates in the component 'a' of slow axonal transport but that the rate of tAU reversals from anterograde to retrograde motion increases.
