Breast cancer (BC) metastasis is an enormous challenge targeting BC therapy. The
extracellular matrix (ECM), the principal component of the BC metastasis niche, is the pivotal …

Since the cell was discovered by humans, it has been an important research subject for
researchers. The mechanical response of cells to external stimuli and the biomechanical …

This paper presents the results of a combined experimental and theoretical study of the
structure and viscoelastic properties of human non-tumorigenic mammary breast tissues and …

This article presents the correlation of creep and viscoelastic properties to the cytoskeletal
structure of both tumorigenic and non‐tumorigenic cells. Unique shear assay and strain …

This paper presents the results of a study of the actin cytoskeletal structures and the
statistical variations in the actin fluorescence intensities and viscoelastic properties of non …

Brush cytology is a sampling technique extensively used for mucosal surfaces, particularly to
identify malignancies. A sample is obtained by rubbing the brush bristles over the stricture or …

Neutrophils need to migrate through tight tissue spaces to eliminate pathogens, but their
movement is often hindered by their large and stiff nuclei. Neutrophil migration is impaired in …

Irregular biomechanics are a hallmark of cancer biology subject to extensive study. The
mechanical properties of a cell are similar to those of a material. A cell's resistance to stress …

The adhesive interactions between molecular recognition units (such as specific peptides
and antibodies) and antigens or other receptors on the surfaces of tumors are of great value …

Despite sharing oncogenetic mutations, only a small number of cells within a given tissue
will undergo malignant transformation. Biochemical and physical factors responsible for this …
