(a)Schematic of an MTF on a chip substrate fabrication; (b) Schematic illustrating the FN microcontact printed onto the substrate to form confluent tissue – VSMC fluorescent image shows anisotropic organization of actin within a confluent monolayer, scale bar = 30 μm; (c) The change of stress generated by VSMCs with the time points where 50 nM ET-1 and 0.1mM ROCK Inhibitor were added indicated in blue; brightfield images of the vMTF chip shown at three data points indicated with red diamonds, scale bar = 2 mm; the projection of the films is shown with red bars, and the blue outline indicates the original length of the film.
