A scaling law for epithelial tissue rheology

M. I. Cheikh, N. Rodriguez, K. Doubrovinski

The paper develops a theory to explain the rheological properties of early fly embryos, showing that tissue deformation follows a power law with exponent 1/2 under pulling forces.

A comprehensive model of Drosophila epithelium reveals the role of embryo geometry and cell topology in mechanical responses

M. I. Cheikh, J. Tchoufag, M. Osterfield…·K. Doubrovinski

The paper develops a model of Drosophila epithelium to show that mechanical responses depend on embryo geometry and cell topology, with apical surfaces being softer than basal ones.
