Response of explanted neonatal cardiac tissues to substrate flexibility. Heart tissue explants from newborn rat are plated on either stiff (A) or soft (B) substrates for 3 days. Many cells have migrated out of the tissue explants onto stiff substrates (A), but few cells are able to migrate onto soft substrate (B). Asterisks indicate explanted tissues. Bar, 100 μm.
