to quantify cell health, which could lead to the diagnosis of certain diseases
that affect cell function. Also, information regarding the difference between
the mechanical properties of ‘healthy’ and ‘unhealthy’ cells can be used to
predict whether therapeutic treatments will be effective in treating certain
diseases. Overall, a better knowledge of the mechanical properties of cells
will enable a better approximation of the mechanical properties of tissues,
which is essential in tissue engineering. These and other such potential
applications of cell mechanics make it a very important topic of study, both
currently, and for years to come.
