Polarized interfacial tension induces collective migration of cells, as a cluster, in a three-dimensional tissue
Satoru Okuda, Katsuhiko Sato
Cells collectively migrate as a cluster in three-dimensional (3D) tissues, such as in embryogenesis and cancer invasion. Here, numerical simulations using a 3D vertex model show th…

A Mechanical Instability in Planar Epithelial Monolayers Leads to Cell Extrusion
Satoru Okuda, Koichi Fujimoto
In cell extrusion, a cell embedded in an epithelial monolayer loses its apical or basal surface and is subsequently squeezed out of the monolayer by neighboring cells. Cell extrusi…
