摘要: MSC's respond to submicron scale topography and rigidity through differential focal adhesion formation. Furthermore, our studies indicate a submicron scale for a rigidity dependent contractile unit of the focal adhesion with which cells perceive discrete regions of altered rigidity. Future work will investigate the role of heterogeneous rigidity coupled with nanoscale topography in modulating the cellular phenotype and the translation of nanoscale topography to electrically conducting systems with aim to fabricating next-generation neuroelectrodes.
