A migrating epithelial monolayer flows like a Maxwell viscoelastic liquid

S. Tlili, M. Durande, C. Gay +3

We perform a bidimensional Stokes experiment in an active cellular material: an autonomously migrating monolayer of Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells flows around a…

Fast determination of coarse grained cell anisotropy and size in epithelial tissue images using Fourier transform

M. Durande, S. Tlili, T. Homan +3

Mechanical strain and stress play a major role in biological processes such as wound healing or morphogenesis. To assess this role quantitatively, fixed or live images of tissues a…

3D simulations of wet foam coarsening evidence a self similar growth regime

Gilberto L. Thomas, Julio M. Belmonte, François Graner +2

In wet liquid foams, slow diffusion of gas through bubble walls changes bubble pressure, volume and wall curvature. Large bubbles grow at the expenses of smaller ones. The smaller…

Robustness of force and stress inference in an epithelial tissue

K. Sugimura, Y. Bellaïche, F. Graner +2

During morphogenesis, the shape of a tissue emerges from collective cellular behaviors, which are in part regulated by mechanical and biochemical interactions between cells. Quanti…

Colloquium: Mechanical formalisms for tissue dynamics

Sham Tlili, Cyprien Gay, Francois Graner +3

The understanding of morphogenesis in living organisms has been renewed by tremendous progressin experimental techniques that provide access to cell-scale, quantitative information…

Mechanical state, material properties and continuous description of an epithelial tissue

Isabelle Bonnet, Philippe Marcq, Floris Bosveld +3

During development, epithelial tissues undergo extensive morphogenesis based on coordinated changes of cell shape and position over time. Continuum mechanics describes tissue mecha…
