The Direction of Stretch-Induced Cell and Stress Fiber Orientation Depends on Collagen Matrix Stress

Cell structure depends on both matrix strain and stiffness, but their interactive effects are poorly understood. We investigated the interactive roles of matrix properties and stretching patterns on cell structure by uniaxially stretching U2OS cells expressing GFP-actin on silicone rubber sheets sup...
