Viscoelastic Cell Mechanics and Actin Remodelling Are Dependent on the Rate of Applied Pressure

BACKGROUND: Living cells are subjected to external and internal mechanical stresses. The effects of these stresses on the deformation and subsequent biological response of the cells remains unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that the rate at which pressure (or stress) is applied influence the...
