Linking E-cadherin mechanotransduction to cell metabolism through force mediated activation of AMPK

The response of cells to mechanical force is a major determinant of cell behavior and is an energetically costly event. How cells derive energy to resist mechanical force is unknown. Here, we show that application of force to E-cadherin stimulates Liver Kinase B1 (LKB1) to activate AMP-activated pro...
