Figure Legend Snippet: Impact of ECM stiffness on mitochondrial calcium influx. (A, C) Live imaging time-lapse series capturing the intensity of calcium-specific biosensors within HeLa cells: pCMV CEPIA2 mt for mitochondrial calcium (green) and pCMV R-CEPIA1er for endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium (red), post-treatment with 1 µM ionomycin on substrates with 1 and 40 kPa stiffness. Ionomycin was administered 5 min after initiating the imaging process, with only the media and cells present in the confocal dish during the initial 5 min. The accompanying color scale bar represents calcium levels, with red indicating high and blue denoting low calcium concentrations (scale bar = 10 µm). (B, D) Quantitative analysis of the time courses of normalized emission intensity from the pCMV CEPIA2 mt and pCMV R-CEPIA1er biosensors in HeLa cells treated with 1 µM ionomycin on substrates with 1 and 40 kPa stiffness. Each line represents the mean value of normalized emission intensity for a group of 10 cells (n = 10), and the error bars reflect the standard error of the mean (SEM), illustrating the dynamic calcium changes in response to ECM stiffness and ionomycin treatment.
