Mechanical stress driven by rigidity sensing governs epithelial stability

Surabhi Sonam et al.

Summary: Epithelial cells are influenced by mechanical stress and abrasion, impacting their integrity. Culturing epithelial cells on two-dimensional hydrogels showed that soft substrates resulted in a loss of epithelial monolayer integrity through hole formation. This rupture was associated with cellular stretching and cell division events.

Active morphogenesis of patterned epithelial shells

Diana Khoromskaia et al.

Summary: This study investigates the shape transformations of epithelial tissues in three dimensions and identifies the active forces generated by the cytoskeleton as crucial. The interplay between local differential tensions, tissue geometry, and external forces is explored, revealing the mechanical equilibrium shapes and dynamic deformations of epithelial sheets.

Mechanical basis and topological routes to cell elimination

Siavash Monfared et al.

Summary: Cell layers eliminate unwanted cells through the extrusion process, and the underlying mechanical basis of cellular extrusion remains largely unexplored. By using a phase-field model, the study reveals that the forces involved in cell extrusion are linked to defects in cellular arrangements, and increasing cell-cell adhesion forces can switch the behavior of the cell monolayer for extrusion. An extrusion event acts as a mechanism to relieve localized stress concentration by accessing three-dimensional mechanical stress fields.

Fluctuations of cell geometry and their nonequilibrium thermodynamics in living epithelial tissue

M. Olenik et al.

Summary: We have measured the contributions to entropy production in a living functional epithelial tissue by studying its functional dynamics and quantifying fluctuations. Using high-resolution live imaging of the translucent Drosophila melanogaster pupal epithelium, we measured the entropy associated with the stochastic geometry of cells. Our analysis of the shape and orientation dynamics of individual cells allowed us to separate local and global aspects of tissue behavior. Interestingly, we observed irreversible dynamics in cell geometries without a change in the entropy associated with those degrees of freedom, indicating a flow of energy into those degrees of freedom and the control of entropy production by the living system.

The role of tissue maturity and mechanical state in controlling cell extrusion

Teresa Zulueta-Coarasa et al.

Summary: Epithelia remove dying or excess cells through a process called extrusion, which is influenced by tissue mechanics and development. New studies highlight the significance of tissue mechanics as a whole, rather than individual cell mechanics, in controlling extrusion. Factors such as tissue compaction, stiffness, and cell-cell adhesion can affect the efficiency of cell extrusion and the mechanisms involved in adapting to different developmental or disease conditions.

Integer topological defects organize stresses driving tissue morphogenesis

Pau Guillamat et al.

Summary: Integer topological defects promote cellular self-organization and regulate cell differentiation and tissue morphogenesis. The self-organization of cells around these defects can establish complex multicellular structures and trigger localized cell differentiation or the growth of swirling cellular pillars. These processes require specific stress patterns.

Polar Fluctuations Lead to Extensile Nematic Behavior in Confluent Tissues

Andrew Killeen et al.

Summary: A collection of motile cells, each generating contractile nematic stresses in isolation, can exhibit extensile nematic behavior at the tissue level, which seems contradictory. Understanding this phenomenon is crucial in biology and has fundamental significance in soft matter and many body physics.

Fluctuation-induced dynamics of nematic topological defects

Lasse Bonn et al.

Summary: Topological defects in biological systems have been increasingly studied. Numerical simulations show that even without specific forms of active stresses, fluctuations in orientation or hydrodynamics can result in flow patterns similar to those observed in active systems around topological defects. Additionally, fluctuation-induced defects can exhibit extensile or contractile motion.

Catapulting of topological defects through elasticity bands in active nematics

Nitin Kumar et al.

Summary: Active materials are those in which local stresses drive the material out of equilibrium on a global scale. Active nematic liquid crystals (LCs) are a system of particular interest, and increasing the bend elasticity drives the material into an exotic steady state dominated by elasticity bands that strongly influence defect dynamics.

Topological defects in the nematic order of actin fibres as organization centres of Hydra morphogenesis

Yonit Maroudas-Sacks et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the nematic order of actin fibers in Hydra regeneration plays a crucial role in morphogenesis, with topological defects acting as organization centers for morphological feature development. Fibre alignment sets the regenerated body axis and defect sites form organizing centers for the developing body plan.

Bacteria solve the problem of crowding by moving slowly

O. J. Meacock et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that slow movement of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is vital for its collective migration across surfaces, as it avoids being trapped by topological defects resulting from faster cell movements. In contrast, faster mutant cells are overtaken and outcompeted by slower wild-type cells at high cell densities, leading to faster collective behavior and migration. The physics of liquid crystals helps explain how bacteria can outcompete each other in the race for new territory by generating topological defects that trap fast-moving cells.

Tissue mechanics in stem cell fate, development, and cancer

Mary-Kate Hayward et al.

Summary: Cells sense mechanical cues and modulate their behavior through mechanotransduction. Loss of tensional homeostasis can increase cancer risk and promote tumor aggressiveness and metastasis. Therefore, strategies that regulate tumor mechanics may be effective in preventing aggressive tumor behavior.

Mechanoregulation of YAP and TAZ in Cellular Homeostasis and Disease Progression

Xiaomin Cai et al.

Summary: Biophysical cues, such as mechanical properties, play a critical role in tissue growth and homeostasis. YAP and TAZ are key mechanotransducers that control transcriptional programs for cell proliferation, differentiation, and transformation. However, the regulatory mechanisms and downstream transcriptome responses of YAP/TAZ signaling remain largely unknown.
