Atomic force microscope elastography reveals phenotypic differences in alveolar cell stiffness.

Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985) - 1 Aug 2008

Azeloglu Evren U, Bhattacharya Jahar, Costa Kevin D

Abstract excerpt

To understand the connection between alveolar mechanics and key biochemical events such as surfactant secretion, one first needs to characterize the underlying mechanical properties of the lung parenchyma and its cellular constituents. In this study, the mechanics of three major cell types from the neonatal rat lung were studied; primary alveolar type I (AT1) and type II (AT2) epithelial cells and lung...
