Journal ArticleDOI

The cytoplasm of living cells behaves as a poroelastic material

TL;DR: The poroelastic model is directly validated to explain cellular rheology at physiologically relevant timescales using microindentation tests in conjunction with mechanical, chemical and genetic treatments and shows that water redistribution through the solid phase of the cytoplasm (cytoskeleton and macromolecular crowders) plays a fundamental role in setting cellularRheology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterizing the mechanics of cultured cell monolayers

TL;DR: A system for tensile testing of freely suspended cultured monolayers that enables the examination of their mechanical behavior at multi-, uni-, and subcellular scales is described, providing measurements of monolayer elasticity and showing that this is two orders of magnitude larger than the elasticity of their isolated cellular components.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell mechanics: principles, practices, and prospects.

TL;DR: A generalized outline for measuring cell mechanical properties including loading protocols, tools, and data interpretation is described and it is explained how cell biomechanics research can be adopted by physicists, engineers, biologists, and clinicians alike.
