Abstract

Eukaryotic cells and biological materials are described from a rheological point of view. Single cells possess typical microrheological properties which can affect cell behaviour, in close connection with their adhesion properties. Single cell properties are also important in the context of multicellular systems, i.e. in biological tissues. Results from experiments are analyzed and models proposed both at the cellular scale and the macroscopic scale. To cite this article: C. Verdier et al., C. R. Physique 10 (2009).
