The effect of remodelling and contractility of the actin cytoskeleton on the shear resistance of single cells: a computational and experimental investigation
Dowling, Enda P.; Ronan, William; Ofek, Gidon; Deshpande, Vikram S.; McMeeking, Robert M.; Athanasiou, Kyriacos A. (The Royal Society Publishing, 2012-07-18)The biomechanisms that govern the response of chondrocytes to mechanical stimuli are poorly understood. In this study, a series of in vitro tests are performed, in which single chondrocytes are subjected to shear deformation ...
