Cell Exerciseにおける細胞挙動

抄録

When we apply cyclic pressure to smooth muscle cells as if humans do muscle training, the cellular tissue becomes stiffer. We call applying such cyclic pressure to cells in order to make stiff cellular tissue “Cell Exercise”. The goal of this study is to understand how cyclic pressure affects cells in microscopic viewpoint. We visualize the behavior of cells under Cell Exercise and under constant pressure, and evaluate the activity of cells with velocity. The transitions of activities have been found different in the two different conditions
