Matrix viscoplasticity and its shielding by active mechanics in microtissue models: experiments and mathematical modeling

The biomechanical behavior of tissues under mechanical stimulation is critically important to physiological function. We report a combined experimental and modeling study of bioengineered 3D smooth muscle microtissues that reveals a previously unappreciated interaction between active cell mechanics...
