Cell volume distributions reveal cell growth rates and division times

March 7, 2009
Author(s)
Michael W. Halter, John T. Elliott, Joseph B. Hubbard, Alessandro Tona, Anne L. Plant
A population of cells in culture displays a range of phenotypic responses, even when those cells are derived from a single cell and are exposed to a homogeneous environment. Phenotypic variability can have a number of sources, including the variable rates

The Stiffness of Collagen Fibrils Influences Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype

March 1, 2007
Author(s)
Dennis P. McDaniel, Gordon A. Shaw, John T. Elliott, Kiran Bhadriraju, Curtis W. Meuse, Koo-Hyun Chung, Anne L. Plant
Cells receive signals from the extracellular matrix through receptor-dependent interactions, but they are also influenced by the mechanical properties of the matrix. While bulk properties of substrates have been shown to effect cell behavior, we show here

Mechanical Stability of Collagen Fibril Networks

November 1, 2005
Author(s)
Gordon A. Shaw, Dennis P. McDaniel, John T. Elliott, Alessandro Tona, Anne L. Plant
Thin films of type 1 collagen fibril networks fabricated on alkanethiol-functionalized surfaces have been previously shown to provide an excellent protein matrix for cultured cells in applications such as drug toxicity studies and studies of cell signaling

Manipulating Cell Adhesion on Gradient Poly(2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate)-Grafted Surfaces

April 1, 2005
Author(s)
Ying Mei, Tao Wu, Chang Xu, K J. Langenbach, John T. Elliott, B D. Vogt, Kathryn L. Beers, Eric J. Amis, N Washburn
In this study, a simple and versatile method was developed to prepare the low grafting density initaitor gradient, which was combined with surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerizations (ATRP) to produce a well defined poly(2-hydroxyethyl
