Local Nonlinear Elastic Response of Extracellular Matrices
Haiqian Yang, Estelle Berthier, Chenghai Li +5
Nonlinear stiffening is a ubiquitous property of major types of biopolymers that make up the extracellular matrices (ECM) including collagen, fibrin and basement membrane. Within t…
Curvature induces active velocity waves in rotating multicellular spheroids
Tom Brandstätter, David B. Brückner, Yu Long Han +3
The multicellular organization of diverse systems, such as embryos, intestines and tumours, relies on the coordinated migration of cells in 3D curved environments. In these setting…
Cell contraction induces long-ranged stress stiffening in the extracellular matrix
Yu Long Han, Pierre Ronceray, Guoqiang Xu +5
Animal cells in tissues are supported by biopolymer matrices, which typically exhibit highly nonlinear mechanical properties. While the linear elasticity of the matrix can signific…
