Model-based Traction Force Microscopy Reveals Differential Tension in Cellular Actin Bundles

Adherent cells use forces at the cell-substrate interface to sense and respond to the physical properties of their environment. These cell forces can be measured with traction force microscopy which inverts the equations of elasticity theory to calculate them from the deformations of soft polymer su...
