Sentence examples for cell force from inspiring English sources

Here, we describe the measurement of contraction of collagen-based scaffolds by fibroblasts in vitro using a cell force monitor.

Adhesion, an essential step for macrophage fusion, was apparently mediated by Mac-1 integrin (CD11b/CD18, αMβ2) as determined by single cell force spectroscopy and adhesion assays.

A novel cell force monitor, employed to estimate the force exerted per cell, demonstrated a higher force exerted by the TGF-β1-treated cells.

Combined, these findings suggest that isometric cell force, passive retraction, and collagen production can be tuned by independently altering boundary stiffness and TGF-β1 concentration.

Due to symmetry the remaining two cases, when either UTs of cell force or forces UTs of cell, are obtained by exchanging with, and with in (A.1) and (A.2).

Polyacrylamide gels are among the most commonly used substrate materials in studying cell force responses due to their mechanical tunability, optical translucency, and elastic material behavior [17].

The generic form of the sub-cell force is obtained by requiring the scheme to satisfy a semi-discrete dissipation inequality.

The numerical scheme relies on a finite volume cell-centered method wherein numerical fluxes are expressed in terms of sub-cell force.

To test this hypothesis, we quantify the adhesion of pre-osteoblastic cells to native (Col) and partially-denatured (pdCol) collagen I using single-cell force spectroscopy.

Using single-cell force spectroscopy they have measured the cell-cortex tension of these cell types (ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm) while specifically interfering with actomyosin-dependent cell-cortex tension.

To measure lateral forces more directly, single-cell force spectroscopy (SCFS), in which a single bacterial cell is attached to the AFM cantilever, can be applied to probe the forces between this single bacterium and a surface.
