This study shows that β-catenin condensation drives the clustering of the cadherin/catenin complex and the formation of new cell-cell junctions.

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 mechanical strain activates EGFR-ERK signaling in epithelial cells via E-cadherin-induced ADAM17-mediated ligand shedding.
