ABSTRACT
This chapter has the aim to propose a theoretical framework for describing the qualitative changes in the deformation behavior of isolated human breast cancer cells under varying gravitational conditions. We describe interdisciplinary principles of statistical thermodynamics and nonlinear dynamics of eukaryotic cells. The framework aims to capture how microgravity-induced alterations in cytoskeletal organization lead to distinct mechanobiological phenotypes.
