This study identifies cortical tension as a mechanical barrier that prevents premature neuronal differentiation during neurogenesis, showing that reducing it accelerates neuronal lineage commitment and differentiation.

This study shows GBM cells use Plexin-B2 to regulate membrane tension and mechano-electrical coupling for migration through confined spaces.

This study identifies Plexin-B2 as a regulator of cell mechanics during multicellular organization, showing its role in modulating cell stiffness, contractility, and differentiation in human stem and progenitor cells.
