Mechanical stress through growth on stiffer substrates impacts animal health and longevity in <i>C. elegans</i>

2024-04-12

Abstract excerpt

Mechanical stress is a measure of internal resistance exhibited by a body or material when external forces, such as compression, tension, bending, etc. are applied. The study of mechanical stress on health and aging is a continuously growing field, as major changes to the extracellular matrix and cell-to-cell adhesions can result in dramatic changes to tissue stiffness during aging and diseased conditions. For exa...
