Original Abstract

A cytoskeletal network contributes significantly to intracellular regulation of mechani- cal stresses, cell motility and cellular mechanics. Thus, it plays a vital role in defining the mechanical behaviour of the cell. Among the wide range of models proposed for dynamic behaviour of cytoskeleton, the soft glassy rheology model has gained special attention due to the resemblance of its predictions with the mechanical data measured from experiments. The soft glassy material, theory of soft glassy rheology and experiment on cytoskeleton has been discussed, which leads to a discussion of the unique features and flaws of the model. The soft glassy rheological model provides a unique explanation of the cytoskeleton ability to deform, flow and remodel.
