A minimal physical model for curvotaxis driven by curved protein complexes at the cell's leading edge
Raj Kumar Sadhu, Marine Luciano, Wang Xi +12
Cells often migrate on curved surfaces inside the body, such as curved tissues, blood vessels or highly curved protrusions of other cells. Recent \textit{in-vitro} experiments prov…

Modelling cellular spreading and emergence of motility in the presence of curved membrane proteins and active cytoskeleton forces
Raj Kumar Sadhu, Samo Penič, Aleš Iglič +1
Eukaryotic cells adhere to extracellular matrix during the normal development of the organism, forming static adhesion as well as during cell motility. We study this process by con…
