Different setups for rheological probing of a contractile cytoskeletal fiber. The force response of the fiber is affected by the magnitude of inherent active prestress in measurement scenarios (A) and (B). In setup (C), contributions of active prestress to force oscillations are avoided. To see this figure in color, go online.
