Study Deepens Our Understanding of Cellular Mechanosensing – Technology Networks
An interdisciplinary team seeks to better understand how the mechanical properties of cells operate in the body and how pathologies can disrupt these processes.
Cells sense and respond to the mechanical properties of the cellular microenvironment in the body. Changes in these properties, which occur in a number of human pathologies, including cancer, can elicit abnormal responses from cells. How the cells adapt to such changes in the mechanical microenvironment is not well understood.
A team of researchers at Texas A&M University are working to understand cellular mechanosensing — the ability to sense and respond to the mechanical properties of the microenvironment…
