Physical and Molecular Pathways Involved in Cellular Sensing of Mechanical Signals
Mechanical properties of the extracellular environment provide important cues that regulate cell behavior. Particularly, the cellular response to substrate rigidity has become an important parameter to consider in disease treatment as well as tissue engineering. The goal of this thesis is to underst...
