Innovative Tools for Mechanobiology: Unraveling Outside-In and Inside-Out Mechanotransduction
Cells and tissues can sense and react to the modifications of the physico-chemical properties of the extracellular environment (ECM) through integrin-based adhesion sites and adapt their physiological response in a process called mechanotransduction. Due to their critical localization at the cell-EC...
