Well-plate mechanical confinement platform for studies of mechanical mutagenesis.

Abstract excerpt

Limited space for cell division, perhaps similar to the compressed microenvironment of a growing tumor, has been shown to induce phenotypic and karyotypic changes to a cell during mitosis. To expand understanding of this missegregation of chromosomes in aberrant multi-daughter or asymmetric cell divisions, we present a simple technique for subjecting mammalian cells to adjustable levels of confinement which...
