This study investigates how fibronectin matrix remodeling by cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) influences their nematic dynamics, revealing aging and freezing of defect motion in the ECM.

This study shows that mechanical signals from the Collagen I-rich matrix drive fate transitions in colorectal cancer cells, enabling metastasis despite lacking Lgr5 expression.

This study shows fibroblasts create tubular structures that guide cancer cell migration by acting as physical tracks.

This study examines how cyclic stretching affects intestinal epithelial cell orientation using Caco-2 cells on PDMS substrates, revealing a perpendicular alignment response and modeling it with a vertex model.
