Muscle Contraction-Inspired Tough Hydrogels.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "ACS applied materials & interfaces"
DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c20319
Abstract: In many animals, tough skeletal muscle contraction occurs, producing a strong force through myofilaments attaching to and sliding on fibrous actin filaments. In contrast, the strength of typical synthetic hydrogels is facilitated mainly by polymeric… read more here.

DOI: 10.1146/annurev-biochem-052521-042909
Abstract: Muscles are essential for movement and heart function. Contraction and relaxation of muscles relies on the sliding of two types of filaments-the thin filament and the thick myosin filament. The thin filament is composed mainly… read more here.
