Contact guidance as a consequence of coupled morphological evolution and motility of adherent cells

A. Ippolito, A. DeSimone, V. Deshpande

The paper uses a Langevin model to show how non-thermal fluctuations drive cell morphology and motility, leading to contact guidance on patterned substrates.

Nutations in plant shoots: Endogenous and exogenous factors in the presence of mechanical deformations

D. Agostinelli, A. DeSimone, G. Noselli

The paper presents a 3D morphoelastic rod model to study plant shoot morphogenesis, showing how elastic deflections and endogenous cues influence circumnutating behaviors through Hopf bifurcations and oscillatory mechanisms.

How Euglena gracilis swims: flow field reconstruction and analysis

N. Giuliani, M. Rossi, G. Noselli, A. DeSimone

This paper reconstructs and analyzes the three-dimensional flow fields generated by Euglena gracilis swimming, validating a synthetic stroke model through numerical simulations and singularities.

The biomechanical role of extra-axonemal structures in shaping the flagellar beat of Euglena

G. Cicconofri, G. Noselli, A. DeSimone

The paper models flagellar mechanics in Euglena gracilis, showing that the spinning lasso shape results from interactions between the axoneme and paraflagellar rod.

Entropic forces drive cellular contact guidance

G. Buskermolen, H. Suresh, S. Shishvan, A. Vigliotti, A. deSimone, N. Kurniawan, C. Bouten, V. Deshpande

The paper investigates contact guidance in cells by analyzing alignment on micropatterned substrates and identifies two regimes: one driven by biochemical changes and another by entropic forces.
