Understanding sensory nerve mechanotransduction through localized elastomeric matrix control.
BACKGROUND: While neural systems are known to respond to chemical and electrical stimulation, the effect of mechanics on these highly sensitive cells is still not well understood. The ability to examine the effects of mechanics on these cells is limited by existing approaches, although their overal...
