Probing cellular mechano-sensitivity using biomembrane-mimicking cell substrates of adjustable stiffness

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) === It is increasingly recognized that mechanical properties of substrates play a pivotal role in the regulation of cellular fate and function. However, the underlying mechanisms of cellular mechanosensing still remain a topic of open debate....
