Mechanochemical Signaling of the Extracellular Matrix in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) is a critical process in embryonic development in which epithelial cells undergo a transdifferentiation into mesenchymal cells. This process is essential for tissue patterning and organization, and it has also been implicated in a wide array of pathologies. Wh...
