Abstract:

Antony Gormley's Another Place and Olafur Eliasson's Your watercolour machine exemplify passages and combinations of smooth and striated space as beings of sensation on planes of technical and aesthetic composition. They are frames which striate the smoothness of light, water, molten iron, etc., using scientific planes of reference. Smooth and striated mix as boundaries between visitors’ bodies and installation become permeable. Optic becomes tactile, becomes haptic, generative engagement. Both artists experiment with the interface between striated and smooth to encourage visitors to experiment and experience sensation. The installations are liquid spaces; forms of perpetual non-permanence which affect and react with others’ behaviours in processes of co-emergence.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the wear resistance behavior of the striated tool for cross wedge rolling (CWR). Design/methodology/approach A mechanical-thermal coupled, temperature-dependent FE wear model was developed to explore the wear behaviors for striated CWR tools. To verify the proposed FE model, a newly developed measuring device was also developed to measure wear on the tool ridge. To find the impact order of the parameters of striate unit, orthogonal experiment was carried out. Findings The experimental and numerical results both indicate that the wear resistance of striated tool is better than that of smooth tool. Minimum tool ridge wear can be achieved by choosing proper tool contact temperature with striated units on crossed ridge. The order of the striation geometrical factors’ impact on ridge wear is striation width > striation interval > striation length. Research limitations/implications Because of the specified tool, the research results may lack generalizability. Therefore, researchers are encouraged to test the proposed propositions further. Originality/value It is shown that the wear resistance of striated CWR tool is better than that of smooth tool. The information may help CWR manufactures to design and produce tools with less wear.

Abstract:

Unbiased evaluation of morphology is crucial to understanding development, mechanics, and pathology of striated muscle tissues. Indeed, the ability of striated muscles to contract and the strength of their contraction is dependent on their tissue-, cellular-, and cytoskeletal-level organization. Accordingly, the study of striated muscles often requires imaging and assessing aspects of their architecture at multiple different spatial scales. While an expert may be able to qualitatively appraise tissues, it is imperative to have robust, repeatable tools to quantify striated myocyte morphology and behavior that can be used to compare across different labs and experiments. There has been a recent effort to define the criteria used by experts to evaluate striated myocyte architecture. In this review, we will describe metrics that have been developed to summarize distinct aspects of striated muscle architecture in multiple different tissues, imaged with various modalities. Additionally, we will provide an overview of metrics and image processing software that needs to be developed. Importantly to any lab working on striated muscle platforms, characterization of striated myocyte morphology using the image processing pipelines discussed in this review can be used to quantitatively evaluate striated muscle tissues and contribute to a robust understanding of the development and mechanics of striated muscles.

Abstract:

Abstract Recent genetic population studies on Toxoplasma gondii in Brazil have shown large genetic variability. The objective of the present study was to isolate and genotypically characterize T. gondii from free-ranging and captive wild mammals and birds in Pernambuco state, Brazil. Fragments of heart, brain, skeletal muscle and diaphragm tissue from 71 birds and 34 mammals, which were either free-ranging or captive, were collected. Samples from 32 of these animals were subjected to bioassays in mice. Samples from the remaining 73 animals underwent biomolecular diagnosis, using PCR technique, targeting a repetitive DNA fragment of 529 bp in T. gondii. A non-virulent isolate (TgButstBrPE1) was obtained from a free-ranging striated heron (Butorides striata) and, based on primary samples, seven animals were found to be positive. The primary samples and the isolate obtained were subjected to PCR-RFLP using the markers SAG1, 5’3’SAG2, alt.SAG2, SAG3, BTUB, GRA6, c22-8, c29-2, L358, PK1, Apico and CS3. ToxoDB-RFLP genotype #13 from the striated heron isolate and Type BrIII genotype from a captive otter ( Lontra longicaudis) (PS-TgLonloBrPE1) were obtained. The present study describes the first isolation and genotypic characterization of T. gondii in free-ranging striated heron, and the first genotypic characterization of T. gondii in a captive otter.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper summarizes the breeding biology, social organization, and mating system of the Striated Grasswren (Amytornis striatus), a member of one of the least-known genera of Australian passerines, the grasswrens. I studied 18 color-banded groups and 14 nests in South Australia for one breeding season in 1996. Mean territory size was 3.0 ha, and territories consisted of sandy dunes dominated by spinifex (Triodea irritans). This apparent dependency on mature spinifex, coupled with poor dispersal ability, suggests that the Striated Grasswren is particularly susceptible to habitat destruction. Most groups consisted of socially monogamous pairs, mean group size was 2.1 adults, and the adult sex ratio was 0.95 (males:females). The average clutch size was 2.2 ± 0.4 eggs and an average of 1.1 ± 1.1 young fledged per nesting effort. A male and a female provided similar amounts of parental care at a single nest. Cloacal protuberance size and amount of sperm collected did not suggest intense sperm competition among males.

Abstract:

Muscle tissues are classically divided into two major types, depending on the presence or absence of striations. In striated muscles, the actin filaments are anchored at Z-lines and the myosin and actin filaments are in register, whereas in smooth muscles, the actin filaments are attached to dense bodies and the myosin and actin filaments are out of register. The structure of the filaments in smooth muscles is also different from that in striated muscles. Here we have studied the structure of myosin filaments from the smooth muscles of the human parasite Schistosoma mansoni. We find, surprisingly, that they are indistinguishable from those in an arthropod striated muscle. This structural similarity is supported by sequence comparison between the schistosome myosin II heavy chain and known striated muscle myosins. In contrast, the actin filaments of schistosomes are similar to those of smooth muscles, lacking troponin-dependent regulation. We conclude that schistosome muscles are hybrids, containing striated muscle-like myosin filaments and smooth muscle-like actin filaments in a smooth muscle architecture. This surprising finding has broad significance for understanding how muscles are built and how they evolved, and challenges the paradigm that smooth and striated muscles always have distinctly different components.

Abstract:

Laminopathies are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases caused by genetic mutations in the LMNA gene, encoding A-type lamins. A-type lamins are nuclear envelope proteins which associate with B-type lamins to form the nuclear lamina, a meshwork underlying the inner nuclear envelope of differentiated cells. The laminopathies include lipodystrophies, progeroid phenotypes and striated muscle diseases. Research on striated muscle laminopathies in the recent years has provided novel perspectives on the role of the nuclear lamina and has shed light on the pathological consequences of altered nuclear lamina. The role of altered nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in the physiopathology of striated muscle laminopathies has been recently highlighted. Here, we have summarized these findings and reviewed the current knowledge about NAD+ alteration in striated muscle laminopathies, providing potential therapeutic approaches.

Abstract:

The striatal complex of basal ganglia comprises two functionally distinct districts. The dorsal district controls motor and cognitive functions. The ventral district regulates the limbic function of motivation, reward, and emotion. The dorsoventral parcellation of the striatum also is of clinical importance as differential striatal pathophysiologies occur in Huntington’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and drug addiction disorders. Despite these striking neurobiologic contrasts, it is largely unknown how the dorsal and ventral divisions of the striatum are set up. Here, we demonstrate that interactions between the two key transcription factors Nolz-1 and Dlx1/2 control the migratory paths of striatal neurons to the dorsal or ventral striatum. Moreover, these same transcription factors control the cell identity of striatal projection neurons in both the dorsal and the ventral striata including the D1-direct and D2-indirect pathways. We show that Nolz-1, through the I12b enhancer, represses Dlx1/2, allowing normal migration of striatal neurons to dorsal and ventral locations. We demonstrate that deletion, up-regulation, and down-regulation of Nolz-1 and Dlx1/2 can produce a striatal phenotype characterized by a withered dorsal striatum and an enlarged ventral striatum and that we can rescue this phenotype by manipulating the interactions between Nolz-1 and Dlx1/2 transcription factors. Our study indicates that the two-tier system of striatal complex is built by coupling of cell-type identity and migration and suggests that the fundamental basis for divisions of the striatum known to be differentially vulnerable at maturity is already encoded by the time embryonic striatal neurons begin their migrations into developing striata.

Abstract:

External anal and urethral sphincters have several common features. Each has striated muscle fibers encircling those of smooth muscle that reflexly contract to guard an orifice or relax to allow evacuation. These functions require special contractile and morphological properties and reflex control not demanded of striated skeletal muscles.

Abstract:

Mesozoic tooth marks on bone surfaces directly link consumers to fossil assemblage formation. Striated tooth marks are believed to form by theropod denticle contact, and attempts have been made to identify theropod consumers by comparing these striations with denticle widths of contemporaneous taxa. The purpose of this study is to test whether ziphodont theropod consumer characteristics can be accurately identified from striated tooth marks on fossil surfaces. We had three major objectives (1) to experimentally produce striated tooth marks and explain how they form; (2) to determine whether body size characteristics are reflected in denticle widths; and (3) to determine whether denticle characters are accurately transcribed onto bone surfaces in the form of striated tooth marks. We conducted controlled feeding trials with the dental analogue Varanus komodoensis (the Komodo monitor). Goat (Capra hircus) carcasses were introduced to captive, isolated individuals. Striated tooth marks were then identified, and striation width, number, and degree of convergence were recorded for each. Denticle widths and tooth/body size characters were taken from photographs and published accounts of both theropod and V. komodoensis skeletal material, and regressions were compared among and between the two groups. Striated marks tend to be regularly striated with a variable degree of branching, and may co-occur with scores. Striation morphology directly reflects contact between the mesial carina and bone surfaces during the rostral reorientation when defleshing. Denticle width is influenced primarily by tooth size, and correlates well with body size, displaying negative allometry in both groups regardless of taxon or position. When compared, striation widths fall within or below the range of denticle widths extrapolated for similar-sized V. komodoensis individuals. Striation width is directly influenced by the orientation of the carina during feeding, and may underestimate but cannot overestimate denticle width. Although body size can theoretically be estimated solely by a striated tooth mark under ideal circumstances, many caveats should be considered. These include the influence of negative allometry across taxa and throughout ontogeny, the existence of theropods with extreme denticle widths, and the potential for striations to underestimate denticle widths. This method may be useful under specific circumstances, especially for establishing a lower limit body size for potential consumers.

Abstract:

Endothelial cells respond to mechanical stresses of the circulation with cytoskeletal rearrangements such as F-actin stress fiber alignment along the axis of fluid flow. Endothelial cells are exposed to hypertonic stress in the renal medulla or during mannitol treatment of cerebral edema. We report here that arterial endothelial cells exposed to hypertonic stress rearranged F-actin into novel actin-myosin II fibers with regular 0.5-μm striations, in which α-actinin colocalizes with actin. These striated fibers assembled over hours into three-dimensional, irregular, polygonal actin networks most prominent at the cell base, and occasionally surrounding the nucleus in a geodesic-like structure. Hypertonicity-induced assembly of striated polygonal actin networks was inhibited by cytochalasin D, blebbistatin, cell ATP depletion, and intracellular Ca2+ chelation but did not require intact microtubules, regulatory volume increase, or de novo RNA or protein synthesis. Striated polygonal actin network assembly was insensitive to inhibitors of MAP kinases, tyrosine kinases, or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, but was prevented by C3 exotoxin, by the RhoA kinase inhibitor Y-27632, and by overexpressed dominant-negative RhoA. In contrast, overexpression of dominant-negative Rac or of dominant-negative cdc42 cDNAs did not prevent striated polygonal actin network assembly. The actin networks described here are novel in structure, as striated actin-myosin structures in nonmuscle cells, as a cellular response to hypertonicity, and as a cytoskeletal regulatory function of RhoA. Endothelial cells may use RhoA-dependent striated polygonal actin networks, possibly in concert with cytoskeletal load-bearing elements, as a contractile, tension-generating component of their defense against isotropic compressive forces.

Abstract:

Three new species and six new subspecies of the genus Cobitis from the western part of the Japanese archipelago aredescribed: Cobitis kaibarai sp. nov., Cobitis magnostriata sp. nov., Cobitis minamorii sp. nov., Cobitis striata fuchigamiisubsp. nov., Cobitis striata hakataensis subsp. nov., Cobitis minamorii oumiensis subsp. nov., Cobitis minamoriitokaiensis subsp. nov., Cobitis minamorii saninensis subsp. nov., and Cobitis minamorii yodoensis subsp. nov. Cobitisstriata Ikeda, 1936 was redescribed on the basis of specimens collected from the type locality. The four striated spinedloaches, C. striata, C. kaibarai, C. magnostriata, and C. minamorii were clearly distinguished by the pelvic myotomenumber, shape of the lamina circularis, black spots at the caudal base, body shape, and egg diameter. Although thesesubspecies of C. striata and C. minamorii are remarkably alike in morphology, the adult males of the subspecies had different longitudinal patterns of pigmentation during the non-spawning season.

Abstract:

We studied the outcome of syngenic skeletal muscle precursor cells (MPCs) implanted in the striated urethral sphincter of the female rat. These cells were injected at the site of a longitudinal sphincterotomy performed 21 days before implantation. MPCs were isolated from the striated hindlimb muscles of syngenic adult rats and were infected with a retrovirus carrying the gene for either the green fluorescent protein (GFP) or the β-galactosidase enzyme (β-gal). MPCs (2 × 105) were injected longitudinally at the site of the lesion in 48 animals using a 10-μl Hamilton syringe. Then the whole urethras were excised from 2 h up to 90 days for cross section immunocytochemistry analysis. All the urethras exhibited connective tissue in place of the injury of the striated fibers. Two hours after injection a cluster of small round basophilic cells was observable at the site of injection and some of them expressed GFP or β-gal. A few GFP- and β-gal-positive cells were already detectable 7 days after injection. A large amount of injected cells probably died after injection. Many striated fibers of the urethra became GFP positive from day 7 until day 21, suggesting that few MPCs were allowed to incorporate the divided extremities of the striated fibers from day 7. Unfortunately, we did not observe centronucleated regenerated fibers in this experiment.

Abstract:

The human esophagus is composed of striated muscle proximally and of smooth muscle distally with a transition zone between the two. Striated muscle contracts much faster than smooth muscle. The change in pressure over time (dP/d t) of the contraction amplitude should therefore be higher in proximal than in distal esophagus, reflecting the presence of striated muscle proximally. There were 34 normal esophageal manometries of patients analyzed for swallow amplitude and dP/d t in the pharynx and esophagus. An additional 11 healthy controls were similarly studied. Amplitudes in pharynx and proximal and distal esophagus were not different. The midesophagus had a pressure trough ( P < 0.001). The dP/d t in the pharynx was much higher than that in the esophagus ( P < 0.001). The dP/d t of proximal and distal esophagus were of the same order of magnitude. The manometric behavior of the striated muscle portion of the proximal esophagus differs from that seen in the pharynx and shows similar characteristics to distal esophageal smooth muscle.

Abstract:

Mitochondrial biogenesis (synthesis) has been observed to occur in skeletal muscle in response to chronic use. It also occurs in cardiac muscle during growth and hypertrophy, and it may be impaired during the aging process. This review summarizes the literature on the processes of mitochondrial biogenesis at the biochemical and molecular levels, with particular reference to striated muscles. Mitochondrial biogenesis involves the expression of nuclear and mitochondrial genes and the coordination of these two genomes, the synthesis of proteins and phospholipids and their import into the organelle, and the incorporation of these lipids and proteins into their appropriate locations within the matrix, inner or outer membranes. The emphasis is on the regulation of these events, with information derived in part from other cellular systems. Although descriptions of mitochondrial content changes in heart and skeletal muscle during altered physiological states are plentiful, much work is needed at the molecular level to investigate the regulatory processes involved. A knowledge of biochemical and molecular biology techniques is essential for continued progress in the field. This is a promising area, and potential new avenues for future research are suggested. Key words: heart, skeletal muscle, gene expression, heme metabolism, protein import

This article is experimenting with posthuman and new-material approaches to explore new concepts or maybe try to reconceptualize leadership. Thinking with Deleuze and Guattari’s immanent ontology and Barad’s agential realism, I wonder how diffractions and leadership productions in smooth and striated rooms affect and are affected by bodies, work environments, and events. Diffraction is a physical phenomenon concerning how the waves of water, electricity, and light move, overlap, and spread in ever changing directions when encountering obstructions. The research is based on thinking, talking, and wondering with glowing events after shadowing director Maria in the Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) center Dandelion. As an encountering thought, a glowing event is challenging our beliefs and basis for discussion on how leadership is both smoothing and striating the space, sometimes creating turning points. The event is glowing as an example of leadership production affecting relations and well-being.

Abstract:

The mechanics of the actomyosin interaction have been extensively studied using the organized filament array of striated muscle. However, the extrapolation of these data to the events occurring at the level of a single actomyosin interaction has not been simple. Problems arise in part because an active fiber has an ensemble of myosin heads that are spread out through the various steps of the active cycle, and it is likely that only a small fraction of the heads are generating tension at any given time. More recently, two new approaches have greatly extended our knowledge of the actomyosin interaction. First, the three-dimensional crystal structures of both the actin monomer and the myosin head have been determined, and these structures have been fit to lower resolution images to give atomic models of the actin filament and of the actin filament decorated by myosin heads. Second, the technology to measure picoNewton forces and nanometer distances has provided direct determinations of the force and step length generated by a single myosin molecule interacting with a single actin filament. This review synthesizes the existing mechanical data obtained from the more-organized array of the muscle filament with the results obtained by these two technologies.

Abstract:

Through an exploratory interrelation of theory with fine art practice, this article sets out to address the role of memory in the transitions and transformations between smooth and striated states. The article constructs a striated, woven formation between virtual and acquired memory, and attentive and inattentive perception, before going on to investigate how its regularity is disrupted through disturbances, slippages and snags.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE. The authors evaluated the role of antibodies to striated muscle and acetylcholine receptors in diagnostics of myasthenia gravis and thymoma, as well as outcomes of thymectomy and prognosis of myasthenia course. MATERIAL AND METHODS. The study investigated correlations of antibody content to striated muscles and acetylcholine receptors from the presence and size of thymoma, myasthenia in 157 patients with various pathologies of the thymus. The dynamics of antibody concentrations was followed up after thymectomy. RESULTS. Antibody titer to striated muscle depended on the presence and size of thymoma, severity of myasthenia and changed after thymectomy. Concentration of antibodies was associated with the presence of thymoma and it didn’t change after surgical treatment. Thymoma wasn’t revealed in patients who were seronegative to both antibodies. CONCLUSIONS. Seropositivity according to one of antibody could indicate the presence of thymoma, but its absence to both antibodies allowed doctors to eliminate this diagnosis. Antibodies to acetylcholine receptors are important markers of myasthenia. Monitoring of antibody titer dynamics to striated muscles after thymectomy could be useful for assessment of response to surgical treatment and prognosis of course of myasthenia.

Abstract:

The composition and organization of myofibrils at extra-junctional membrane attachment sites in cultured neonatal rat cardiac muscle cells were analysed by immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. When myofibril terminals attached to the cell membrane via focal contacts at regions of the sarcolemma that lacked intercalated discs, they appeared to be non-striated and resembled thick actin cables. Although the non-striated terminals contained actin, myosin and alpha-actinin, the proteins were not organized into recognizable sarcomeres at the light microscopic level. Analysis of the structure of the terminals in the electron microscope confirmed that the usual sarcomeric organization and attachments to the sarcolemma were markedly modified. The non-striated myofibril terminals differed in structure from both stress fibres in non-muscle cells and stress fibre-like structures present in embryonic heart cells in culture. Non-striated myofibril terminals attached to the cell membrane by lateral contact with extra-junctional electron-dense membrane plaques rather than by insertion by their ends into the fascia adherens. It is proposed that the structure and composition of membrane-attachment points for myofibrils may have an influence on the structure, organization or stability of contractile elements in cardiac muscle.

Abstract:

Striated is seen as a fixed space and carries a sense of border. On the other hand, smooth space is seen as continuous and open interval. However, both terms are always intermingling, at one point smooth can be striated and vice versa. A city can be seen as a striated (border) and as smooth space (urban sprawl). Looking at a strip near Pasar Ciputat, Tangerang Selatan, this paper investigates how space changes function and identity overtime. The strip becomes a good example of analyzing the smooth and striated space practiced in everyday life. This strip is heavily populated by street vendors who has ‘occupying schedule’ and continuously changes the patterns of occupation. They prefer to sell goods on the road instead of in the provided building. By midnight, the road is not accessible as the vendors closed off and sell their goods on the road. In the morning and afternoon, some vendors disappear and their former space has been used by other vendors to sell different goods. Through observation, urban morphological mapping and photographic analysis, this paper uncovers the fluid uses and meaning of the space.

Abstract:

Abstract Aims To explore the morphology of the proximal coronary sinus (CS) and the surrounding tissues in order to identify possible routes for interatrial conduction. Method Specimens containing interatrial septum and proximal CS were taken from 21 necropsied hearts and sliced into 10-μm thick parallel histological sections in 1-mm steps starting from the valve plane, up to the atrial roof (40–80 sections per heart). The sections were stained with van Gieson's stain. Results Media in the proximal CS consists of smooth muscle cells that do not form a continuous layer. CS was not surrounded by striated atrial myocardium in 10 specimens in which posterior CS wall was covered by epicardial fat only. In seven specimens, striated muscle bundles of up to 2-mm width connected the myocardium surrounding the CS with the left atrium. Regardless of their presence, variable posterior and/or anterior interatrial muscular connections were identified in all specimens. Conclusion Variability of the striated atrial myocardium surrounding proximal CS may affect interatrial conduction. Striated muscular fascicles connecting the proximal CS with the left atrium are not obligatory cardiac structures and may be considered as supplementary to the larger interatrial connections outside the CS.

Abstract:

Contractile myocytes provide a test of the hypothesis that cells sense their mechanical as well as molecular microenvironment, altering expression, organization, and/or morphology accordingly. Here, myoblasts were cultured on collagen strips attached to glass or polymer gels of varied elasticity. Subsequent fusion into myotubes occurs independent of substrate flexibility. However, myosin/actin striations emerge later only on gels with stiffness typical of normal muscle (passive Young's modulus, E ∼12 kPa). On glass and much softer or stiffer gels, including gels emulating stiff dystrophic muscle, cells do not striate. In addition, myotubes grown on top of a compliant bottom layer of glass-attached myotubes (but not softer fibroblasts) will striate, whereas the bottom cells will only assemble stress fibers and vinculin-rich adhesions. Unlike sarcomere formation, adhesion strength increases monotonically versus substrate stiffness with strongest adhesion on glass. These findings have major implications for in vivo introduction of stem cells into diseased or damaged striated muscle of altered mechanical composition.

Abstract:

Crystalline lens and striated muscle exist at opposite ends of the metabolic spectrum. Lens is a metabolically quiescent tissue, whereas striated muscle is a mechanically dynamic tissue with high-energy requirements, yet both tissues contain millimolar levels of ATP (>2.3 mM), far exceeding their underlying metabolic needs. We explored intracellular concentrations of ATP across multiple cells, tissues, species, and domains to provide context for interpreting lens/striated muscle data. Our database revealed that high intracellular ATP concentrations are ubiquitous across diverse life forms including species existing from the Precambrian Era, suggesting an ancient highly conserved role for ATP, independent of its widely accepted view as primarily “metabolic currency”. Our findings reinforce suggestions that the primordial function of ATP was non-metabolic in nature, serving instead to prevent protein aggregation.

Abstract:

We employed immunocytochemical and in situ hybridization techniques to study the expression of transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) in rat submandibular gland. Immunoreactivity for TGF-beta 1 was observed in the cells of granular convoluted tubules (GCTs), striated ducts, and excretory ducts, whereas it was absent in the intercalated ducts and secretory acini in both male and female rats. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed the ultrastructural localization of TGF-beta 1 in the secretory granules of GCT cells. On the other hand, signals for rat TGF-beta 1 mRNA were abundant in the GCT and striated duct cells but were lacking in the excretory duct cells. These results provided evidence for the production of TGF-beta 1 in the GCTs and striated ducts of rat submandibular gland.
