We characterize the rheological properties of cell suspensions and tissues. The suspension concentration is varied over a wide range. CHO cell suspensions are used. In particular, we are able to characterize the flow properties of cells as well as their viscoelastic properties. The concentration-dependent yield stress and elastic plateau modulus are explained in the context of fractal aggregates under shear. These effects are related to intrinsic microscopic parameters.Then a model tissue is constructed, by including the same cells in a collagen matrix. To characterize the structural changes, confocal microscopy is used. A new important feature is observed, which is the breakdown of the collagen network, due to the presence of cells. Indeed...
