Glaucoma, which is associated with intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation, results in trabecular meshwork (TM) cellular dysfunction, leading to increased rigidity of the extracellular matrix (ECM), larger adhesion forces between the TM cells and ECM, and higher resistance to aqueous humor drainage. TM cells sense the mechanical forces due to IOP dynamic and apply multidimensional forces on the ECM. Recognizing the importance of cellular forces in modulating various cellular activities and development, this study is aimed to develop a 2D in vitro cell culture model to calculate the 3D, depth-dependent, dynamic traction forces, tensile/compressive/shear strain of the normal and glaucomatous human TM cells within a deformable polyacrylamide (PAM) gel substrate.
