Abstract excerpt
Force-driven cellular interactions are crucial for cancer cell invasion but remain underexplored in vascular abnormalities. Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM), a vascular abnormality characterized by leaky vessels, involves CCM mutant cells recruiting wild-type endothelial cells to form and expand mosaic lesions. The mechanisms behind this recruitment remain poorly understood. Here, we use an in-vitro model...
