A lot of experimental findings have confirmed that: Animal cells acquire a spherical shape just before the division; Under biochemical stimulus of mitotic apparatus aster the cells form a contractile ring in equator plane, and the mother cell divides into two daughter cells; meanwhile the total volume keeps constant. In Zinemanas and Nir's model the reorientation of microfilament and the visco-elasticity of cortex have been took into consideration. In our present work, the effective coefficient m due to biochemical stimulus was incorporated into the model, and the local distribution C was modified to diffuse with the plasma membrane motion. The numerical results showed that the formation of a contractile ring and parameters such as the surface tension in the furrow and internal pressure can be predicted successfully. Compared with Zinemanas and Nir's model, the results of our model are more correspondent with the experimental results. It can be concluded that the effective coefficient m has limited effects on the process control of cytokinesis.

Hydrogels can be rationally designed as multifunctional platforms with structures and functions for various biomedical applications. Because of their excellent biochemical and mechanical properties, hydrogels have shown great potential for promoting angiogenesis, and an increasing amount of research has been devoted to designing and developing new hydrogels. However, a systematic and detailed review of hydrogels that promote angiogenesis is lacking.

The precise target recognition and nuclease-mediated effective signal amplification capacities of CRISPR-Cas systems have attracted considerable research interest within the biosensing field. Guided by insights into their structural and biochemical mechanisms, researchers have endeavored to engineer the key biocomponents of CRISPR-Cas systems with stimulus-responsive functionalities. By the incorporation of protein/nucleic acid engineering techniques, a variety of conditional CRISPR-Cas systems whose activities depend on the presence of target triggers have been established for the efficient detection of diverse types of non-nucleic acid analytes.
