Dimensionality controls cytoskeleton assembly and metabolism of fibroblast cells in response to rigidity and shape.

<h4>Background</h4>Various physical parameters, including substrate rigidity, size of adhesive islands and micro-and nano-topographies, have been shown to differentially regulate cell fate in two-dimensional (2-D) cell cultures. Cells anchored in a three-dimensional (3-D) microenvironmen...
