Experimental evidence suggests that anisotropic stress induces alignment of intracellular actin filaments. We develop a model for this phenomenon, which includes a parameter reflecting the sensitivity of the microfilament network to changes in the stress field. When applied to a uniform cell sheet a

The central role of the cytoskeleton in both healthy and diseased cellular functions makes it a compelling subject for detailed threedimensional (3D) micromechanical modeling. Microstructural features of the cytoskeleton govern the cell's mechanical behavior in many of the regulating cellular functi
