Stress percolation criticality of glass to fluid transition in active cell layers
Siavash Monfared, Guruswami Ravichandran, Jose E. Andrade +1
Using three-dimensional representation of confluent cell layers, we map the amorphous solid to fluid phase transition in active cell layers onto the two-dimensional (2D) site perco…
Differential elasticity in lineage segregation of embryonic stem cells
Christine M. Ritter, Natascha Leijnse, Younes Farhangi Barooji +3
The question of what guides lineage segregation is central to development, where cellular differentiation leads to segregated cell populations destined for specialized functions. H…
Bridging microscopic cell dynamics to nematohydrodynamics of cell monolayers
Aleksandra Ardaševa, Romain Mueller, Amin Doostmohammadi
It is increasingly being realized that liquid-crystalline features can play an important role in the properties and dynamics of cell monolayers. Here, we present a cell-based model…
Activity-induced instabilities of brain organoids
Kristian Thijssen, Guido L. A. Kusters, Amin Doostmohammadi
We present an analytical and numerical investigation of the activity-induced hydrodynamic instabilities in model brain organoids. While several mechanisms have been introduced to e…
Physics of liquid crystals in cell biology
Amin Doostmohammadi, Benoit Ladoux
The last decade has witnessed a rapid growth in understanding of the pivotal roles of mechanical stresses and physical forces in cell biology. As a result an integrated view of cel…
Half-integer and full-integer topological defects in polar active matter: Emergence, crossover, and coexistence
Aboutaleb Amiri, Romain Mueller, Amin Doostmohammadi
The presence and significance of active topological defects is increasingly realised in diverse biological and biomimetic systems. We introduce a continuum model of polar active ma…
