Theoretical Analysis of Stress Distribution and Cell Polarization Surrounding a Model Wound

A growing amount of experimental evidence shows that the local elastic field acting on cells governs their spatial organization and polarity in a tissue. Interestingly, experiments on wound healing reveal a universal formation of thick actomyosin bundles around the margins of epithelial gaps. Althou...
