Tissue and organ development during embryogenesis relies on the collective and
coordinated action of many cells. Recent studies have revealed that tissue material …

There is increasing evidence that both mechanical and biochemical signals play important
roles in development and disease. The development of complex organisms, in particular …

INTRODUCTION Human beings are equipped with multiple senses (sight, hearing, smell,
taste, touch, and proprioception) to help them to react properly to their environment. The …

Tissue, cell, and nucleus morphology change during tumor progression. In 2D confluent cell
cultures, different tissue states, such as fluid (unjammed) and solid (jammed), are correlated …

When animal cells enter mitosis, they round up to become spherical. This shape change is
accompanied by changes in mechanical properties. Multiple studies using different …

Tumor‐associated macrophages have important roles in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)
initiation and progression. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have also been reported to be …

The physical state of embryonic tissues emerges from non-equilibrium, collective
interactions among constituent cells. Cellular jamming, rigidity transitions and characteristics …

The collective behaviour of cells in epithelial tissues is dependent on their mechanical
properties. However, the contribution of tissue mechanics to wound healing in vivo remains …

Embryo morphogenesis is impacted by dynamic changes in tissue material properties,
which have been proposed to occur via processes akin to phase transitions (PTs). Here, we …

During vertebrate organogenesis, increases in morphological complexity are tightly coupled
to morphogen expression. In this work, we studied how morphogens influence self …
