Effect of cluster shape, traction distribution and dynamics on the tensional homeostasis in multi-cellular clusters
Various types of mammalian cells exhibit the remarkable ability to adapt to external applied mechanical stresses and strains. This ability allows cells to maintain a stable endogenous mechanical tension at a preferred (homeostatic) level, which is of great importance for normal physiological functio...
