The cells of the various organ systems in humans are subject to mechanical forces to which they must respond. Here the authors review what is known of the ways in which the cells of animals, ranging from the prokaryotic to humans, sense and transduce mechanical forces to respond to such stimuli. In what way this pertains to the eye, especially with respect to axial myopia and the pressure related disease of glaucoma, is then surveyed.
人类各种器官系统的细胞会受到机械力作用,它们必须对此作出反应。在此,作者回顾了从原核生物到人类等各类动物细胞感知和转换机械力以应对此类刺激的已知方式。随后探讨了这与眼睛的关系,特别是在轴性近视和青光眼等与压力相关疾病方面的关系。
