[ 1 ] - Effect of Stress-Fiber Inclusion on the Local Stiffness of Cell Cytoskeleton Probed by AFM Indentation: Insights from a Discrete Network Model

In this paper, we analyze the effect of stress-fiber inclusion on the stiffness of an actin random network. To do this, use a discrete random network model to analyze the elastic response of this system in terms of apparent Young’s modulus. First, we showed that for a flat-ended cylindrical AFM indenter the total indentation force has a linear relation with the indentation depth and the indente...
