Active Deformable Cells Undergo Cell Shape Transition Associated with Percolation of Topological Defects
Nen Saito, Shuji Ishihara
Cell deformability is an essential determinant for tissue-scale mechanical nature, such as fluidity and rigidity, and is thus crucial for understanding tissue homeostasis and stabl…
Pattern Propagation Driven by Surface Curvature
Ryosuke Nishide, Shuji Ishihara
Pattern dynamics on curved surfaces are found everywhere in nature. The geometry of surfaces have been shown to influence dynamics and play a functional role, yet a comprehensive u…
Surface-tension-driven coarsening in mass-conserved reaction-diffusion systems
Michio Tateno, Shuji Ishihara
Mass conservation in chemical species appears in a broad class of reaction-diffusion systems (RDs) and is known to bring about coarsening of the pattern in chemical concentration.…
Cytoskeleton polarity is essential in determining orientational order in basal bodies of multi-ciliated cells
Toshinori Namba, Shuji Ishihara
Synchronous and directed ciliary beating in trachea allows transport and ejection of virus and dust from the body. This ciliary function depends on the coordinated configuration of…
Kalman inversion stress microscopy
V. Nier, G. Peyret, J. d'Alessandro +3
Although mechanical cues are crucial to tissue morphogenesis and development, the tissue mechanical stress field remains poorly characterized. Given traction force timelapse movies…
From cells to tissue: A continuum model of epithelial mechanics
Shuji Ishihara, Philippe Marcq, Kaoru Sugimura
A continuum model of epithelial tissue mechanics was formulated using cellular-level mechanical ingredients and cell morphogenetic processes, including cellular shape changes and c…
