Cell neighbor exchanges are integral to tissue rearrangements in biology, including development and repair. Often these processes occur via topological T1 transitions analogous those observed foams, grains colloids. However, contrast non-living materials the biological tissues rate-limited cannot instantaneously due finite time required remodel complex structures at cell-cell junctions. Here we study how this rate-limiting process affects mechanics collective behavior of cells a by introducing important constraint theoretical vertex-based model as an intrinsic single-cell property. We report absence constraint, undergoes motility-driven glass transition characterized sharp increase intermittency rearrangements. Remarkably, disappears temporally limited. As unique consequence limited rearrangements, also find that develops spatially correlated streams fast slow cells, which organize into stream-like patterns with leader-follower interactions, maintain optimally stable contacts. The predictions work is compared existing in-vivo experiments Drosophila pupal development.

Abstract Increasing evidence demonstrates that mechanical forces, in addition to soluble molecules, impact cell and tissue functions physiology diseases. How living cells integrate signals perform appropriate biological is an area of intense investigation. Here, we review the central role cytoskeletal prestress mechanotransduction mechanobiology. Elevating increases stiffness reinforces stiffening, facilitates long‐range cytoplasmic via integrins, enables direct chromatin stretching rapid gene expression, spurs embryonic development stem differentiation, boosts immune activation killing tumor whereas lowering maintains pluripotency, promotes tumorigenesis metastasis cell‐like malignant tumor‐repopulating cells, elevates drug delivery efficiency soft‐tumor‐cell‐derived microparticles.

Abstract During embryonic development, regeneration, and homeostasis, cells have to migrate physically integrate into the target tissues where they ultimately execute their function. While much is known about biochemical pathways driving cell migration in vivo, we are only beginning understand mechanical interplay between migrating surrounding tissue. Here, reveal that multiciliated precursors Xenopus embryo use filopodia pull at vertices of overlying epithelial sheet. This pulling effectively used sense vertex stiffness identify preferred positions for integration Notably, find forces equip with ability remodel junctions neighboring cells, enabling them generate a permissive environment facilitates integration. Our findings intricate physical crosstalk cell-tissue interface uncover previously unknown functions orchestrating

ABSTRACT Cell junctions play key roles in epithelial integrity. During development, when epithelia undergo extensive morphogenesis, these must be remodeled order to maintain mechanochemical barriers and ensure the cohesion of tissue. In this Review, we present a comprehensive integrated description junctional remodeling mechanisms cells during from embryonic adult epithelia. We largely focus on Drosophila, as quantitative analyses organism have provided detailed characterization molecular governing cell topologies, discuss conservation across metazoans. consider how changes at level translate tissue-scale irreversible deformations, exploring composition assembly cellular interfaces unveil are preserve tissue homeostasis division, intercalation, invagination, ingression extrusion.

Epithelial tissues cover the surfaces and lumens of internal organs multicellular animals crucially contribute to environment homeostasis by delineating distinct compartments within body. This vital role is known as epithelial barrier function. cells are arranged like cobblestones intricately bind together form an sheet that upholds this Central restriction solute fluid diffusion through intercellular spaces occluding junctions, tight junctions in vertebrates septate invertebrates. As part tissues, undergo constant renewal, with older being replaced new ones. Simultaneously, tissue undergoes relative rearrangement, elongating, shifting directionally a whole. The movement or shape changes necessitate significant deformation reconnection junctions. Recent advancements have shed light on intricate mechanisms which sustain their function dynamic environments. review aims introduce these noteworthy findings discuss some questions remain unanswered.
