Cell Differentiation through Tissue Elasticity-coupled, Myosin-driven Remodeling

Cells may lack eyes to see and ears to hear, but cells do seem to have a sense of ‘touch’ that allows them to feel their microenvironment. This is achieved in part through contractility-coupled adhesion to physically flexible ‘soft’ tissue. Here we summarize some of the known variations in elasticit...
