Mechanobiology studies focus on the roles of physical forces, such as shear stress and mechanical stretching, and on changes in the mechanical properties of cells and tissues that regulate biological and pathological processes. This chapter provides a brief overview of the development of material-based mechanobiology with regard to cellular mechanoarchitectonic and its time-evolving dynamic nature, together with the prospects of this new discipline.
