Shape-Independent Fluidity in Epithelial Cell Monolayers
Pradip K. Bera, Anh Q. Nguyen, Molly McCord +2
Tissue fluidity regulates biological processes such as embryonic development, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. In confluent epithelia, where cell packing fraction is effective…
Cell-Cell Adhesion as a Double-Edged Sword in Tissue Fluidity
Anh Q. Nguyen, Pradip K. Bera, Jacob Notbohm +1
Cell migration plays a fundamental role in numerous physiological processes, including embryonic development, wound healing, and cancer metastasis. While cell-cell adhesion is know…
Traction and Stress Control Formation and Motion of +1/2 Topological Defects in Epithelial Cell Monolayers
Pradip K. Bera, Molly McCord, Jun Zhang +1
In confluent cell monolayers, patterns of cell forces and motion are systematically altered near topological defects in cell shape. In turn, defects have been proposed to alter cel…
