Uncertainty-aware traction force microscopy. [PDF]
PLoS Computational BiologyTraction Force Microscopy (TFM) is a versatile tool to quantify cell-exerted forces by imaging and tracking fiduciary markers embedded in elastic substrates. The computations involved in TFM are often ill-conditioned, and data smoothing or regularization

Coupling traction force patterns and actomyosin wave dynamics reveals mechanics of cell motion [PDF]
Molecular Systems Biology, 2021 Motile cells can use and switch between different modes of migration. Here, we use traction force microscopy and fluorescent labeling of actin and myosin to quantify and correlate traction force patterns and cytoskeletal distributions in Dictyostelium ...

A primer to traction force microscopy [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2022 Traction force microscopy (TFM) has emerged as a versatile technique for the measurement of single-cell-generated forces. TFM has gained wide use among mechanobiology laboratories, and several variants of the original methodology have been proposed. However, issues related to the experimental setup and, most importantly, data analysis of cell traction ...

Dynamic response of the cell traction force to osmotic shock [PDF]
Microsystems & Nanoengineering, 2023 Osmotic pressure is vital to many physiological activities, such as cell proliferation, wound healing and disease treatment. However, how cells interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) when subjected to osmotic shock remains unclear.

A fuzzy model for an increase in locomotive traction force
Transport, 2010 This paper deals with the process of traction force realization described by a suitable mechanical model and is pointed to the adhesion phenomenon as a physical one, i.e. is a suitable factor that the value of traction force depends on. The model for the

What are the key factors influencing traction force in postless hip arthroscopy: a retrospective case-control study [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal DisordersBackground Perineal post countertraction during hip arthroscopy risks complications. Postless traction avoids the perineal post but requires understanding the factors influencing traction force to optimize safety. This study investigated how gender, body

Holographic Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractTraction Force Microscopy (TFM) computes the forces exerted at the surface of an elastic material by measuring induced deformations in volume. It is used to determine the pattern of the adhesion forces exerted by cells or by cellular assemblies grown onto a soft deformable substrate. Typically, colloidal particles are dispersed in the substrate
