Time-dependent traction force microscopy for cancer cells as a measure of invasiveness

TL;DR: It is found that the outliers of the traction stresses can be an effective indicator to distinguish cancer cell lines of different invasivity, and conjecture that this kind of analysis can be useful to classify cancer cell invasiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Traction patterns of tumor cells

TL;DR: The shear stress obtained by numerical integration provides quantitative insight of the traction field and is a promising tool to investigate the spatial pattern of force per unit surface generated in cell motion, particularly in the case of such cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of traction forces of motile cells.

TL;DR: A rheological model of actomyosin linking tension, deformation and myosin activity is validated and the basic pattern of traction forces is robustly predicted by the model and fixed parameters as a function of current geometry only.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mathematical framework for traction force microscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, an abstract framework was proposed to formulates the inverse problem as a constrained minimization problem, and two methods, the adjoint method (AM) and the Fourier Transform Traction Cytometry (FTTC), were derived from this framework.
Journal ArticleDOI

Traction forces of cancer cells

TL;DR: This research aims at understanding the forces developped by different cancer cells of moderate to high invasiveness in order to investigate their contractility as well as the adhesion molecules necessary for cell migration.
