| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This report describes the micron-sized measurement of natural modes of vibration of a cell under mechanical vibration and the relationship between local deformation and biochemical reaction in a cell. As a result, we developed the experimental system for the measurement of natural modes of vibration for a living cell and confirmed its feasibility. Furthermore, we measured the relationship between the displacement of actin cytoskeletons and the maximum value of the change rate of calcium ion concentration of a cell. This indicates that the mechanical sensing system of a cell is partially clarified.
