Measurement of elastic properties of prostate cancer cells using AFM
Abstract
This communication reports that three prostate cancer cells of differing metastatic potential were discriminated based on their Young's moduli (LNCaP – 287 ± 52 N m−2, PC-3 – 1401 ± 162 N m−2 and BPH – 2797 ± 491 N m−2) which were determined using
