Abstract:
Cellular response to mechanical stimuli is a crucial factor for maintaining cell homeostasis. The interaction between the extracellular matrix and mechanical stress plays a significant role in organizing the cytoskeleton and aligning cells. Tools that apply mechanical forces to cells and tissues, as well as those capable of measuring the mechanical properties of biological cells, have greatly contributed to our understanding of fundamental mechanobiology. These tools have been extensively employed to unveil the substantial influence of mechanical cues on the development and progression of vari

Abstract:
Various devices have been developed that use stretching silicone sheets to evaluate cellular mechanotransduction. However, few studies have explored predefined cell alignments using mechanical stimuli for engineering applications, including cell sheets and drug screenings. Therefore, we proposed a magnetically driven cell-stretching device for predefined cell alignment in vitro, which consisted mainly of a circular silicone membrane with a neodymium magnet and standard cell culture dish. As the proposed device was incorporated into a cell culture dish, there may be a small risk of contaminatio

Abstract:
Microfluidic-based cell-stretching devices are vital for studying the molecular pathways involved in cellular responses to mechanobiological processes. Accurate evaluation of these responses requires detailed observation of cells cultured in this cell-stretching device. This study aimed to develop a method for preparing microscope slides to enable high-magnification imaging of cells in these devices. The key innovation is creating a peelable bond between the cell culture membrane and the upper channel, allowing for easy removal of the upper layer and precise cutting of the membrane for high-ma

Abstract:
A microfluidic cell stretch device was developed to investigate the effects of stretching stress on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The microfluidic device harbors upper cell culture and lower control channels, separated by a stretchable poly(dimethylsiloxane) membrane that acts as a cell culture substrate. The lower channel inlet was connected to a vacuum pump via a digital switch-controlled solenoid valve. For cyclic stretch at heartbeat frequency (80 bpm), the open or close time for each valve was set to 0.38 s. Proliferati

Abstract:
Cells in living organisms are constantly experiencing a variety of mechanical cues. From the stiffness of the extra cellular matrix to its topography, not to mention the presence of shear stress and tension, the physical characteristics of the microenvironment shape the cells’ fate. A rapidly growing body of work shows that cellular responses to these stimuli constitute regulatory mechanisms in many fundamental biological functions. Substrate strains were previously shown to be sensed by cells and activate diverse biochemical signaling pathways, leading to major remodeling and reorganization

Fiber reinforcement plays an important role in the structure and function of biological materials. Soft connective tissues in human body like artery, heart tissues, skin etc. exhibit anisotropic material responses due to the orientation of fibers along specific directions. At a cellular level, stress fibers in the cytoskeleton play an important role in maintaining cellular shape and influence cell adhesion, migration, and contractility. Cells respond to changes in their mechanical milieu and drive biochemical processes which induce growth and remodeling of the underlying material properties. T

The development of extremely flexible photovoltaic (PV) devices for energy harvesting and storage applications is currently receiving more attention by the researchers from industries. The presently available energy storage devices are too rigid and extensive and also not suitable for next-generation flexible electronics such as silicon-based solar cells. Thus, the researchers have developed high-performance, lightweight, conformable, bendable, thin, and flexible dependable devices.

Therefore, a thorough understanding of the effects of mechanical perturbations on cells/tissues will have a deep impact in the biological sciences.

External forces are increasingly recognized as major regulators of cell structure and function, yet the underlying mechanism by which cells sense force and transduce it into intracellular biochemical signals and behavioral responses (‘mechanotransduction’) is largely undetermined. To aid in the mechanistic study of mechanotransduction, we devised a novel cell stretching device that allows for quantitative control and real-time measurement of mechanical stimuli and cellular biomechanical responses. Using this device, we studied the subcellular dynamic responses of contractile force and adhesion

Hierarchical branched structures exist in nature in diverse forms, functions and scales stretching from micro to very large sizes. Typically effective as heat and mass transfer networks, ordered hierarchal/ multiscale branched/ tree-like networks could be fabricated by controlling a fluid reshaping process in a device called ‘Multiport Hele-Shaw cell’. Control over the instability by employing micro-modified cell plates, containing ‘source-holes’ as ports, rearranges the fluid into ordered tree-like networks.
