Comparison of direct and inverse methods for 2.5D traction force microscopy

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Essential cellular processes such as cell adhesion, migration and division strongly depend on mechanical forces. The standard method to measure cell forces is traction force microscopy (TFM) on soft elastic substrates with embedded marker beads. While in

Investigation of the stress-strain state of the scraper traction frame [PDF]

open access: yesНаучно-технический вестник Брянского государственного университета, 2018
The paper deals with the loading of the scraper traction frame in the traction and transport modes. When digging the soil, the case of transferring the traction force of the tractor directly to the ladle was examined, bypassing the traction frame.

Two-dimensional TIRF-SIM–traction force microscopy (2D TIRF-SIM-TFM)

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Quantifying small, rapidly evolving forces generated by cells is a major challenge for the understanding of biomechanics and mechanobiology in health and disease.

Traction force reconstruction assessment on real three-dimensional matrices and cellular morphologies

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Traction force microscopy (TFM) allows to estimate tractions on the surface of cells when they mechanically interact with hydrogel substrates that mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Dynamic real-time imaging of living cell traction force by piezo-phototronic light nano-antenna array

open access: yesSciAdv, 2021
High-resolution dynamic force mapping of cardiomyocytes is revealed by nanopillars with piezo-phototronic effect. Dynamic mapping of the cell-generated force of cardiomyocytes will help provide an intrinsic understanding of the heart.

Inference of internal stress in a cell monolayer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We combine traction force data with Bayesian inversion to obtain an absolute estimate of the internal stress field of a cell monolayer. The method, Bayesian inversion stress microscopy (BISM), is validated using numerical simulations performed in a wide ...

Three-Dimensional Quantification of Cellular Traction Forces and Mechanosensing of Thin Substrata by Fourier Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We introduce a novel three-dimensional (3D) traction force microscopy (TFM) method motivated by the recent discovery that cells adhering on plane surfaces exert both in-plane and out-of-plane traction stresses.

High-Resolution Traction Force Microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Cellular forces generated by the actomyosin cytoskeleton and transmitted to the extracellular matrix (ECM) through discrete, integrin-based protein assemblies, that is, focal adhesions, are critical to developmental morphogenesis and tissue homeostasis, as well as disease progression in cancer.

Confocal reference free traction force microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
AbstractThe mechanical wiring between cells and their surroundings is fundamental to the regulation of complex biological processes during tissue development, repair or pathology. Traction force microscopy (TFM) enables determination of the actuating forces.

A fuzzy model for an increase in locomotive traction force

open access: yesTransport, 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
