Dissecting flux balances to measure energetic costs in cell biology: techniques and challenges
Easun Arunachalam, William Ireland, Xingbo Yang +1
Life is a nonequilibrium phenomenon: metabolism provides a continuous supply of energy that drives nearly all cellular processes. However, very little is known about how much energ…
Correlating Cell Shape and Cellular Stress in Motile Confluent Tissues
Xingbo Yang, Dapeng Bi, Michael Czajkowski +3
Collective cell migration is a highly regulated process involved in wound healing, cancer metastasis and morphogenesis. Mechanical interactions among cells provide an important reg…
Coordination of size-control, reproduction and generational memory in freshwater planarians
Xingbo Yang, Kelson J. Kaj, David J. Schwab +1
Uncovering the mechanisms that control size, growth, and division rates of systems reproducing through binary division means understanding basic principles of their life cycle. Rec…
Motility-driven glass and jamming transitions in biological tissues
Dapeng Bi, Xingbo Yang, M. Cristina Marchetti +1
Cell motion inside dense tissues governs many biological processes, including embryonic development and cancer metastasis, and recent experiments suggest that these tissues exhibit…
Hydrodynamics of Turning Flocks
Xingbo Yang, M. Cristina Marchetti
We present a hydrodynamic model of flocking that generalizes the familiar Toner-Tu equations to incorporate turning inertia of well-polarized flocks. The continuum equations contro…
Aggregation and Segregation of Confined Active Particles
Xingbo Yang, M. Lisa Manning, M. Cristina Marchetti
We simulate a model of self-propelled disks with soft repulsive interactions confined to a box in two dimensions. For small rotational diffusion rates, monodisperse disks spontaneo…
