Intrinsic stochasticity in cell polarity and contact inhibition of locomotion

Mariia Kryvoruchko, Brian A. Camley

When cells collide, they often exhibit "contact inhibition of locomotion" (CIL), a behavior in which cells repolarize and migrate away from the site of contact. Experimental CIL ou…

Divergence of detachment forces in the finite Voronoi model

Wei Wang, Brian A. Camley

Detachment and fracture are central to many tissue-level processes, but they are challenging to simulate with Voronoi-type models that typically assume a confluent tissue. Here we…

Guiding isotropic active fluids with anisotropic friction

Cody D. Schimming, Brian A. Camley

Inspired by recent experiments of cells accumulating on anisotropic substrates, we study a two-dimensional, compressible, isotropic, active fluid in the presence of anisotropic fri…

Perfect adaptation in eukaryotic gradient sensing using cooperative allosteric binding

Vishnu Srinivasan, Wei Wang, Brian A. Camley

Eukaryotic cells generally sense chemical gradients using the binding of chemical ligands to membrane receptors. In order to perform chemotaxis effectively in different environment…

Competing chemical gradients change chemotactic dynamics and cell distribution

Emiliano Perez Ipiña, Brian A. Camley

Cells are constantly exposed to diverse stimuli-chemical, mechanical, or electrical-that guide their movement. In physiological conditions, these signals often overlap, as seen dur…

Cell mechanics, environmental geometry, and cell polarity control cell-cell collision outcomes

Yongtian Luo, Amrinder S. Nain, Brian A. Camley

Interactions between crawling cells, which are essential for many biological processes, can be quantified by measuring cell-cell collisions. Conventionally, experiments of cell-cel…
