Programmable integrin and N-cadherin adhesive interactions modulate mechanosensing of mesenchymal stem cells by cofilin phosphorylation
Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cells differentiate in response to mechanical adhesive interactions in their microenvironment. Here, the authors develop a culture platform that can dynamically mimic the cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions associated with development and mesenchymal differentiation in vivo.
