Cell viscosity influences hematogenous dissemination and metastatic extravasation of tumor cells

This study shows that tumor cell viscosity affects their ability to circulate and extravasate, influencing metastasis.

Physical phenotype of blood cells is altered in COVID-19

The paper evaluates physical changes in blood cells of COVID-19 patients and finds persistent alterations in deformability and size of multiple cell types.

3D microenvironment stiffness regulates tumor spheroid growth and mechanics via p21 and ROCK

This study shows that 3D microenvironment stiffness affects tumor spheroid growth and mechanics through p21 and ROCK pathways.

Spheroid culture of mesenchymal stromal cells results in morpho-rheological properties appropriate for improved microcirculation

This study shows that culturing mesenchymal stromal cells in 3D spheroids improves their morpho-rheological properties, enhancing their ability to circulate through microvascular networks.

Detection Of Human Disease Conditions By Single-Cell Morpho-Rheological Phenotyping Of Whole Blood

This paper introduces a method to detect human disease conditions by analyzing whole blood using morpho-rheological phenotyping without labeling or separation.
