Spontaneous patterning of cell size on curved surfaces
Yuan He, Shi-Lei Xue
Tissue surfaces exhibit complex curvature during embryogenesis and oncogenesis. Evidence shows that cells can actively sense curvature to regulate behavior and fate, yet the underl…

Necking of epithelial tissues with cellular topological transition
Yuan He, Shi-Lei Xue
As the cover of embryos and adult organisms, epithelial tissues are subjected to substantial mechanical forces in tissue morphogenesis. However, the finite deformation behaviors of…
