Active nano-mechanical stimulation of single cells for mechanobiology
M. Monticelli, D. S. Jokhun, D. Petti +2
In-vivo, cells are frequently exposed to multiple mechanical stimuli arising from the extracellular microenvironment, with deep impact on many biological functions. On the other ha…
Soft inclusion in a confined fluctuating active gel
Amit Singh Vishen, Jean-Francois Rupprecht, G. V. Shivashankar +2
We study stochastic dynamics of a point and extended inclusion within a one dimensional confined active viscoelastic gel. We show that the dynamics of a point inclusion can be desc…
Maximal fluctuations of confined actomyosin gels: dynamics of the cell nucleus
Jean-Francois Rupprecht, Amit Singh Vishen, G. V. Shivashankar +2
We investigate the effect of stress fluctuations on the stochastic dynamics of an inclusion embedded in a viscous gel. We show that, in non-equilibrium systems, stress fluctuations…
