Abstract:
Mechanical factors play an important role in the regulation of cell physiology. One pathway by which mechanical stress may influence gene expression is through a direct physical connection from the extracellular matrix across the plasma membrane and to the nucleus. However, little is known of the mechanical properties or deformation behavior of the nucleus. The goal of this study was to quantify the viscoelastic properties of mechanically and chemically isolated nuclei of articular chondrocytes...     »
