#Cell removal as the result of a mechanical instability
“#Cell removal as the result of a mechanical instability” Figure 1. Schematic illustration of cell extrusion from epithelial tissue. Credit: Kanazawa University Researchers at Kanazawa University report in the Biophysical Journal that the process of cell removal from an epithelial layer follows from an inherent mechanical instability. Moreover, the forces generated by an extruding cell…
