Gradual Stress-Relaxation of Hydrogel Regulates Cell Spreading

Gradual Stress-Relaxation of Hydrogel Regulates Cell Spreading

There is growing evidence that the mechanical properties of extracellular matrices (ECMs), including elasticity and stress-relaxation, greatly influence the function and form of the residing cells. However, the effects of elasticity and stress-relaxation are often correlated, making the study of the...
