Benchmarking the flow of epithelial cell monolayer with self-aligning deformable active membranes
Marcos Pasa, Carine P. Beatrici, François Graner +2
Collective cell migration emerges from the interplay between motility, deformability and mechanical interactions, yet incorporating these ingredients into computationally efficient…
Collective ballistic motion explains fast aggregation in adhesive active matter
Emanuel F. Teixeira, Pablo de Castro, Carine P. Beatrici +2
Inspired by motile cells in tissue formation, we find that active systems of self-aligning adhesive particles undergo ballistic aggregation through a flocking transition. This kine…
Segregation in binary mixture with differential contraction among active rings
Emanuel F. Teixeira, Carine P. Beatrici, Heitor C. M. Fernandes +1
Cell cortex contraction is essential for shaping cells, enabling movement, ensuring proper division, maintaining tissue integrity, guiding development, and responding to mechanical…
Anomalous mass dependency in Hydra endoderm cell cluster diffusion
Aline Lütz, Carine Beatrici, Lívio Amaral +1
Tissue organization plays a crucial role in morphogenesis, wound healing and cancer metastasis. Hydra, known for its regenerative capabilities, serves as an excellent model for stu…
Discriminating between individual-based models of collective cell motion in a benchmark flow geometry using standardised spatiotemporal patterns
Carine P. Beatrici, Cassio A. Kirch, Silke Henkes +2
Collectively coordinated cell migration plays a role in tissue embryogenesis, cancer, homeostasis and healing. To study these processes, different cell-based modelling approaches h…
