• Mechanical models for living cells--a review. (2006, background): “While some success has been achieved in the development of tissue level continuum mechanics (Humphrey, 2003), it is still a challenge to study single cell mechanics, especially when taking the living and dynamic nature of the cell into consideration (Fung and Liu, 1993; Zhu et al., 2000; Bao and Sur”
• The biomechanics toolbox: experimental approaches for living cells and biomolecules (2003, methodology): “This in vitro approach has been adapted by researchers in an attempt to impose static and cyclic deformation representative of in vivo conditions, and thus the methods and objectives of such substrate manipulation studies are peculiar to the cell type of interest [27-30,105].”
• Mechanics of biomolecules (2002, background): “There is ample evidence suggesting the connections between the two; however, fundamental understanding of this connection needs to be further established (Zhu et al., 2000).”
• Biomechanics and biophysics of cancer cells. (2007, background): “The cytoskeleton, the internal scaffolding comprising a complex network of biopolymeric molecules, primarily determines the cell’s shape and mechanical deformation characteristics [13,69,70].”
• Microrheology of human lung epithelial cells measured by atomic force microscopy. (2003, background): “As such, cells store and dissipate mechanical energy and their response to mechanical stimuli depends on the rate at which the stimulus is applied (Zhu et al., 2000).”
