Mechanical control of mitotic progression in single animal cells

Mechanical control of mitotic progression in single animal cells

Despite the importance of mitotic cell rounding in tissue development and cell proliferation, there remains a paucity of approaches to investigate the mechanical robustness of cell rounding. Here we introduce ion beam-sculpted microcantilevers that enable precise force-feedback-controlled confinemen...
