Myotubes differentiate optimally on substrates with tissue-like stiffness: pathological implications for soft or stiff microenvironments
Contractile myocytes provide a test of the hypothesis that cells sense their mechanical as well as molecular microenvironment, altering expression, organization, and/or morphology accordingly. Here, myoblasts were cultured on collagen strips attached to glass or polymer gels of varied elasticity. Su...
