The extracellular matrix (ECM) strongly influences cell and tissue behaviour in disease and development 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. One of the most important functions of the ECM is to provide an adhesive ...
Animal cells in tissues are supported by biopolymer matrices, which typically exhibit highly nonlinear mechanical properties. While the linear elasticity of the matrix can significantly impact cell ...
Cells in the developing embryo can sense the stiffness of other cells around them, which is key to them moving together to form the face and skull, finds a new study by UCL researchers. In the study ...
