A predictive model of intercellular tension and cell-matrix mechanical interactions in a multicellular geometry

2019-07-12

Abstract excerpt

Epithelial cells form continuous sheets of cells that exist in tensional homeostasis. Homeostasis is maintained through cell-to-cell adhesions that distribute tension and balance forces between cells and their underlying matrix. Disruption of tensional homeostasis can lead to Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), which is a transdifferentiation process in which epithelial cells adopt a mesenchymal phenotype, wh...
