Non-invasive measurement of nuclear relative stiffness from quantitative analysis of microscopy data
Stefano Villa, Andrea Palamidessi, Emanuela Frittoli +3
The connection between the properties of cell tissue and those of the single constituent cells remains to be elucidated. At the purely mechanical level, the degree of rigidity of d…
The self-organised, non-equilibrium dynamics of spontaneous cancerous buds
Abramo Agosti, Stefano Marchesi, Giorgio Scita +1
Tissue self-organization into defined and well-controlled three-dimensional structures is essential during development for the generation of organs. A similar, but highly deranged…
From jamming to collective cell migration through a boundary induced transition
Oleksandr Chepizhko, Maria Chiara Lionetti, Chiara Malinverno +3
Cell monolayers provide an interesting example of active matter, exhibiting a phase transition from a flowing to jammed state as they age. Here we report experiments and numerical…
Giant fluctuations and structural effects in a flocking epithelium
Fabio Giavazzi, Chiara Malinverno, Salvatore Corallino +3
Epithelial cells cultured in a monolayer are very motile in isolation but reach a near-jammed state when mitotic division increases their number above a critical threshold. We have…
Flocking Transition in Confluent Tissues
Fabio Giavazzi, Matteo Paoluzzi, Marta Macchi +5
Collective cell migration underlies important biological processes, such as embryonic development, wound healing and cancer invasion. While many aspects of single cell movements ar…
Frustration induced phases in migrating cell clusters
Katherine Copenhagen, Gema Malet-Engra, Weimiao Yu +3
Collective motion of cells is common in many physiological processes, including tissue development, repair, and tumor formation. Recent experiments have shown that certain malignan…
Bursts of activity in collective cell migration
Oleksandr Chepizhko, Costanza Giampietro, Eleonora Mastrapasqua +11
Dense monolayers of living cells display intriguing relaxation dynamics, reminiscent of soft and glassy materials close to the jamming transition, and migrate collectively when spa…
