Biomechanical Characterization of Endothelial Cells Exposed to Shear Stress Using Acoustic Force Spectroscopy

Characterizing mechanical properties of cells is important for understanding many cellular processes, such as cell movement, shape, and growth, as well as adaptation to changing environments.In this study, we explore the mechanical properties of endothelial cells that form the biological Umbrellas barrier lining blood vessels, whose dysfunction lea
