Human sperm swimming in a high viscosity mucus analogue by Ishimoto, K, Gadêlha, H, Gaffney, EA, Smith, DJ, Kirkman-Brown, J

“…Here, we analyse the digital microscopy of a human sperm swimming in a highly viscous, weakly elastic mucus analogue. We exploit principal component analysis to simplify its flagellar beat pattern, from which boundary element calculations are used to determine the time-dependent flow field around the sperm cell. …”

485 Modeling gastric mucus layer physiology using human organoids by Katrina Lyon, Barkan Sidar, Cam Dudiak, Jim Wilking, Rama Bansil, Diane Bimczok

“…OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Our goal is to explore the extent to which organoids can serve as models for the protective mechanisms of the stomach–the mucus barrier and the pH gradient across it. We aim to first optimize and validate an organoid-based model of the gastric mucus layer, and then define the cellular mechanisms by which the gastric pH gradient is maintained across it. …”
