Multicellular actomyosin cables in epithelia under external anisotropic stress
Meryl A Spencer, Jesus Lopez-Gay, Hayden Nunley +2
The alignment of cell-cell junctions and associated cortical actomyosin across multiple cells to form supracellular cables in an epithelium is an example of the long range tissue o…
Spontaneous Chiral Symmetry Breaking in Planar Polarized Epithelia
Jeremy Hadidjojo, David K. Lubensky
Most animal body plans have some degree of left-right asymmetry. This chirality at the tissue and organ level is often assumed to originate from the intrinsic handedness of biologi…
Vertex stability and topological transitions in vertex models of foams and epithelia
Meryl A. Spencer, Zahera Jabeen, David K. Lubensky
In computer simulations of dry foams and of epithelial tissues, vertex models are often used to describe the shape and motion of individual cells. Although these models have been w…
