Figure 3. Single cell mechanics and cell–cell connections do not explain the mechanical differences.

Figure 3

Creep compliance (mean ±95% CI) of MCF10A and MCF10AT cells at (A) single cell state (N = 14 and N = 15 cells for A and T respectively) and (B) 6–8 day state before lumen formation (N = 34 and N = 33 colonies for A and T respectively). Confocal immunofluorescence images of 8 day colonies of (C) MCF10A and (D) MCF10AT; 6–8 day time points were selected for testing because this was before lumina formed; scale bars 25 µm.
