scutoid
語源 1
First described by Gómez-Gálvez et al. in a 2018 paper (see quotation below). Variously said to be from scutum or scutellum (parts of insect anatomy) or from Escudero, surname of one of the researchers, + -oid.
名詞
scutoid (複数形 scutoids)
- A geometrical solid described as a mix between a frustum and a prismatoid.
- 2018, Pedro Gómez-Gálvez, Pablo Vicente-Munuera, Antonio Tagua, et al., “Scutoids are a geometrical solution to three-dimensional packing of epithelia”, in Nature Communications, volume 9, :
- As a consequence, epithelial cells adopt a novel shape that we term “scutoid”. […] Using biophysical arguments, we propose that scutoids make possible the minimization of the tissue energy and stabilize three-dimensional packing.
- 2019, Felix Reichel, Johannes Mauer, Ahmad Ahsan Nawaz, Gerhard Gompper, Jochen R. Guck, Dmitry Fedosov, “High Troughput Microfluidic Characterization of Erythrocyte Shapes and Mechanical Variability”, in Biophysical Journal, page 123a:
- Our energetics analysis reveals that scutoids allow tissues to minimize the packing energy and we propose that such geometrical shape is nature’s solution to epithelial bending.
- 2020, Ghislain Gillard, Katja Röper, “Control of cell shape during epithelial morphogenesis: recent advances”, in Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, , page 8:
- It has been postulated that ‘scutoids’ are part of a continuum of cell shapes and 3D arrangements, together with frusta and prisms
