Quantifying compressive forces between living cell layers and within tissues using elastic round microgels
Increasing importance is placed upon the effect of mechanical forces on cell regulation, fate and disease states. Here, the authors describe a deformable fluorescent nanoparticle labeled elastic microsphere which can be used to calculate strain and traction forces in vitro and in vivo.
