Traction Force Microscopy for Viscoelastic Substrates: A Semi‐Analytical Method

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Traction force microscopy (TFM) quantifies cellular forces at the cell–extracellular matrix interface, yet elastic formulations neglect viscous dissipation and can misinterpret cellular forces on viscoelastic substrates. We introduce a semi‐analytical 2D

Traction force microscopy by deep learning. [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys J, 2021
Abstract Cells interact mechanically with their surrounding by exerting forces and sensing forces or force-induced displacements. Traction force microscopy (TFM), purported to map cell-generated forces or stresses, represents an important tool that has powered the rapid advances in mechanobiology.

Holographic Traction Force Microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 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

High resolution, large deformation 3D traction force microscopy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Traction Force Microscopy (TFM) is a powerful approach for quantifying cell-material interactions that over the last two decades has contributed significantly to our understanding of cellular mechanosensing and mechanotransduction.

Wrinkle force microscopy: a machine learning based approach to predict cell mechanics from images

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
A deep learning approach, termed wrinkle force microscopy, allows for conducting traction force microscopy by observing bright-field cell images but without using its conventional requirements such as fluorescent microbeads and confocal microscopy.

Mathematical framework for traction force microscopy [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings, 2013
Summary: This paper deals with the \textit{Traction Force Microscopy} (TFM) problem. It consists in obtaining stresses by solving an inverse problem in an elastic medium, from known experimentally measured displacements. In this article, the application is the determination of the stresses exerted by a living cell at the surface of an elastic gel.

Coupling traction force patterns and actomyosin wave dynamics reveals mechanics of cell motion

open access: yesMolecular 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 ...
