Tractions and Stress Fibers Control Cell Shape and Rearrangements in Collective Cell Migration
Key to collective cell migration is the ability of cells to rearrange their position with respect to their neighbors. Recent theory and experiments demonstrate that cellular rearrangements are facilitated by cell shape, with cells having more elongated shapes and greater perimeters more easily slidi...
