    摘要: The disclosure provides a device for measuring cellular responses under controlled environments. The disclosure also provides an array of devices for measuring cellular responses under controlled environments. The disclosure also provides methods to study cell signaling using the devices. By using microfluidics, the disclosure enables study of cell signaling under well-defined environment conditions. Such capability can be used for differentiating long-acting ligands from short-acting ligands, for determining the kinetics of receptor resensitization and functional recovery of receptor signaling, and for differentiating the sensitivity of a cell type to laminar flow-induced stress force. Through combination with conventional static label-free cell assays, the full spectrum of a drug compound can be studied in details, thus creating a complete representation of its pharmacology acting on living cells.

    摘要: A cervical brace for restraining movement of a head and neck vertebra of a patient relative to at least one of a chest and an abdomen of the patient. The brace includes a mount sized and shaped for attachment to at least one of the chest and the abdomen of the patient and a support extending upward from the mount to a position in use adjacent a rearward surface of the head of the patient. The brace includes a loop sized and shaped for receiving the head of the patient cantilevered from the support. The support includes at least one joint for adjusting at least one of a pitch, a yaw and a roll of the loop relative to the mount.
