Two dominant timescales of cytoskeletal crosslinking in the viscoelastic response of the cytoplasm
Cells precisely regulate their frequency-dependent viscoelastic properties in response to chemical and mechanical cues. We use optical trap-based active microrheology using intracellular probes to measure the cytoplasmic mechanical response of fibroblast and macrophage cells over a broad frequency r...
