Mechanical Cell Membrane stimulation using Magnetic Tweezers increases cell membrane stiffness through integrin dependent and independent mechanisms
(Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Σχολή Θετικών και Εφαρμοσμένων Επιστημών / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences, 2022-12)
Several cellular processes, such as proliferation, migration tissue morphogenesis and tissue regeneration, are closely regulated by the cells ability to sense their microenvironment and translate mechanical stimuli to ...
Adherens Junctions spatially guide ECM deposition by stimulating integrin activation and clustering
(Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Σχολή Θετικών και Εφαρμοσμένων Επιστημών / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences, 2022-05-20)
The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an essential role in all multicellular organisms as a substrate for cell anchorage and tissue scaffolding. It is involved in diverse processes such as cell proliferation and survival, ...
