Mechanotransduction and cell fate: from molecular sensors to multicellular self-organization
Mechanical signals are now recognized as instructive cues that guide cell fate decisions with a precision comparable to classical morphogens. The identification of genetically encoded mechanosensors—including the PIEZO and TMC ion channel families, Transient Receptor Potential channels, and mechanosensitive adhesion co...
