Anisotropy and shear stress accumulation during collective migration of epithelial cells

Puntos clave

• Collective migration of epithelial cells is influenced by anisotropy and shear stress—key factors in their movement.
• In analyzing the dynamics, shear stress was shown to accumulate, significantly impacting cell behavior.
• Observational analysis of epithelial cells during migration focused on collective behavior, mechanics, and environmental variables.
• Findings may enhance our understanding of tissue development and healing processes, with implications for regenerative medicine.
