Review of cellular mechanotransduction
17 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Living cells and tissues experience physical forces and chemical stimuli in a human body. The process of converting mechanical forces into biochemical activities and gene expression is mechanochemical transduction or mechanotransduction. Significant advances have been made in understanding mechanotransduction at cellular and molecular levels over the last two decades. However, major challenges remain in...
