  1. 1. Active cellular forces in variable mechanical microenvironments

    Författare :Adele Khavari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Traction force; Gradient substrate; Alginate 3D culture; Durotaxis; mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Our bodies are immensely complex structures, with various systems, organs, and processes that are not only biochemically driven, but strongly dependent on physical mechanics.  At the heart of all these processes are cells, which must generate forces to adhere, spread, differentiate, grow, and move.

  4. 3. Mechanosensing Using GaInP Nanowires

    Författare :Zhen Li; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Traction force; fluorescent nanowires; morphology; migration; Fysicumarkivet A:2018:Li;

    Sammanfattning : Mechanical forces exists in many cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, rearrangement and differentiation. The transformation of cancer cells from normal cells, cancer metastasis and cell rearrangement during morphogenesis all involve changes in cellular mechanical forces. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Mathematical Modelling of Cell Migration and Polarization

    Författare :Adam Malik; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Cell migration plays a fundamental role in both development and disease. It is a complex process during which cells interact with one another and with their local environment. Mathematical modelling offers tools to investigate such processes and can give insights into the underlying biological details, and can also guide new experiments. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Super resolution optical imaging – image analysis, multicolor development and biological applications

    Författare :Daniel Rönnlund; Jerker Widengren; Christian Eggeling; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stimulated emission depletion STED microscopy; nanoscopy; multicolor; image analysis; diagnostics; cancer; metastasis; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on super resolution STED optical imaging. STED provides a wealth of new informational content to the acquired images by using stimulated emission to surpass the diffraction limit in optical fluorescence microscopy. LÄS MER
