Contributions of single-cell mechanics and cell-cell adhesion to multicellular spheroid mechanics
Tumor spheroid mechanics arise from both the mechanical properties of individual cells and the adhesive interactions that organize them into tissues. The relative contribution of these two factors to the bulk mechanical behavior, however, remains difficult to disentangle experimentally. Here, we develop a computational model of micropipette aspiration to compare the mechanical response of…
