Sensing and Modelling Mechanical Response in Large Deformation Indentation of Adherent Cell Using Atomic Force Microscopy
The mechanical behaviour of adherent cells when subjected to the local indentation can be modelled via various approaches. Specifically, the tensegrity structure has been widely used in describing the organization of discrete intracellular cytoskeletal components, including microtubules (MTs) and mi...
