Gap geometry dictates epithelial closure efficiency

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Andrea Ravasio from the Mechanobiology Institute, National University of Singapore, Singapore, Singapore, Sorbonne Universités, UPMC University Paris, CNRS UMR have published the Article: Gap geometry dictates epithelial closure efficiency, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 12/03/2015
  • what: The authors demonstrate that in both in vitro and in vivo regulates these collective mechanisms. The study demonstrates how the interplay between these two mechanisms is crucial for closing gaps and wounds, which naturally come in arbitrary shapes. The experiments show that crawling forces always point outwards from the tissue (that is . . .
