Table 1.

FA associated vinculin area ratios and total mass fractions of F-actin in response to 10% cyclic stretching for three durations: 0, 2, and 30 minutes.

Stretching Time (min)	FA related Area Ratio^a	Total F-actin Mass Fraction, φ
		Exponential Model	Molecular Model
0	0.105±0.002	0.00468^b	0.00451^b
2	0.156±0.003	0.00695	0.00670
30	0.121±0.004	0.00537	0.00518

FA associated vinculin area ratios were obtained previously. N=6 to 7 cells each for two independent experiments per condition. Results are mean ± SEM.

Total mass fractions in the unstretched state were obtained from fitting 1 forceindentation curve per cell with the CSK remodeling model. N=5 cells.
