Three-Dimensional Reflectance Traction Microscopy

Creator:

Kim, Jihan, Jones, Christopher A. R., Groves, Nicholas Scott, and Sun, Bo

Abstract:

Cells in three-dimensional (3D) environments exhibit very different biochemical and biophysical phenotypes compared to the behavior of cells in two-dimensional (2D) environments. As an important biomechanical measurement, 2D traction force microscopy can not be directly extended into 3D cases. In order to quantitatively characterize the contraction field, we have developed...
