Contractile response of alveolar epithelial cells to biochemical or mechanical stimulation probed by traction microscopy
THESIS SUMMARY:GENERAL AIMThe general aim of this thesis was to study the generation of contractile force by human alveolar epithelial cells in culture in response to biochemical or mechanical stimuli using traction microscopy.SPECIFIC AIMS1. To implement a traction microscopy setup to measure the c...
