Experimental and computational investigation of the role of stress fiber contractility in the resistance of osteoblasts to compression
(2013)
The mechanical behavior of the actin cytoskeleton has previously been investigated using both experimental and computational techniques. However, these investigations have not elucidated the role the cytoskeleton plays in ...
Stability enhancement of an atomic force microscope for long-term force measurement including cantilever modification for whole cell deformation
(2012)
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) is widely used in the study of both morphology and mechanical properties of living cells under physiologically relevant conditions. However, quantitative experiments on timescales of minutes ...
