• Materials perspective on Casimir and van der Waals interactions (2015, background): “The long-range interaction between proteins is also of vdW nature (Leckband and Israelachvili, 2001; Leckband and Sivasankar, 1999).”
• A bio-mechanical model for coupling cell contractility with focal adhesion formation (2008, background): “…force–displacement relationships assuming that D 1 ¼ 0 at u 1 ¼ 0 in both (a) and (b). strength of the integrin-ligand complex varies in the range, 2-10 pN (Rinko et al., 2004; Merkel et al., 1999), while the surface energy per integrin is in the range 5-35 kT (Leckband and Israelachvili, 2001).”
