Biophysical Methods to Quantify Cancer Cells and Microengineered Cancer Tissues Properties

abstract: Mechanical properties, in particular elasticity, of cancer cells and their microenvironment are important in governing cancer cell fate, for example function, mobility, adhesion, and invasion. Among all tools to measure the mechanical properties, the precision and ease of atomic force micr...
