Fibrous nonlinear elasticity enables positive mechanical feedback between cells and ECMs
In native states, animal cells of many types are supported by a fibrous network that forms the
main structural component of the ECM. Mechanical interactions between cells and the 3D …

Long-range force transmission in fibrous matrices enabled by tension-driven alignment of fibers
Cells can sense and respond to mechanical signals over relatively long distances across
fibrous extracellular matrices. Recently proposed models suggest that long-range force …
