A Chemomechanical Model of Matrix and Nuclear Rigidity Regulation of Focal Adhesion Size

In this work, a chemomechanical model describing the growth dynamics of cell-matrix adhesion structures (i.e., focal adhesions (FAs)) is developed. We show that there are three regimes for FA evolution depending on their size. Specifically, nascent adhesions with initial lengths below a critical val...
