| Abstract | External forces, cell adhesion and soluble signaling molecules influence fundamental functions of cells like shape, migration, proliferation or differentiation. Thus, investigating how mechanical forces affect 3D cell structure and function is of crucial significance in order to gain a better understanding healthy and malignant cell behavior during embryogenesis, regeneration or malignancy [1]. Micromanipulation of cells in a controlled environment is a widely used approach for understanding cellular responses with respect to external mechanical forces. While experimental data provide optical information about the overall cell shape, the 3D deformation state of intracellular structures is not accessible by direct observations and measurements. However, the continuous description of the intracellular deformation state can be calculated as a numerical solution of the boundary value problem given by the partial differential equations of structural mechanics, including a set of canonic material constants (stiffness, compressibility), and the boundary conditions derived from time series of images, e.g. change of visible cell contours. The main idea of our approach is to reformulate the problem of finding optimal modeling parameters as an image registration problem. That is the optimal set of modeling parameters corresponds to the minimum of a suitable similarity measure between computationally predicted and experimentally observed deformations. In this article, we focus on the numerical analysis of uniaxial stretching of a rat embryonic fibroblast 52 (REF 52) based on a series of 2D images reflecting the successive alteration of cell contours during deformation. The goal of this study consists in finding an optimal set of material constants within a non-linear hyperelastic material law, which is able to reproduce results of experimental observations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
