Fiber alignment in 3D collagen networks as a biophysical marker for cell contractility

D. Boehringer, A. Bauer, I. Moravec, L. Bischof, D. Kah, C. Mark, T. J. Grundy, E. Goerlach, G. M. O'Neill, S. Budday, P. Strissel, R. Strick, A. Malandrino, R. Gerum, M. Mak, , B. Fabry

This study uses fiber alignment and density in 3D collagen networks as a proxy for cell traction forces, validated in hepatic stellate cells and glioblastoma cell lines, and provides an open-source tool for drug screening.

Immune cells employ intermittent integrin-mediated traction forces for 3D migration

T. Czerwinski, L. Bischof, D. Böhringer, S. Kara, P. L. Strissel, R. Strick, A. Winterl, R. Gerum, E. Wittmann, M. Schneider, M. W. Beckmann, G. Nusser, M. Wiesinger, S. Budday, A. Lux, , C. Mark

This study shows immune cells switch between amoeboid and contractile migration modes in dense matrices, using integrin-mediated forces to navigate steric hindrance.

Dynamic traction force measurements of migrating immune cells in 3D matrices

D. Boehringer, M. Condor, L. Bischof, T. Czerwinski, N. Gampl, P. A. Ngo, A. Bauer, R. Lopez-Posadas, K. Franze, C. Voskens, S. Budday, C. Mark, B. Fabry, R. Gerum

This study measures dynamic traction forces of migrating NK cells in 3D matrices and finds that force bursts increase with matrix stiffness to aid migration through constrictions.
