Cells sense a variety of different mechanochemical stimuli and promptly react to such signals
by reshaping their morphology and adapting their structural organization and tensional …

… Kinase (FAK) phosphorylation, a marker of FA assembly, by western blotting in cells silenced
for … In line with our findings, IF analyses showed impairment of FA and actin cytoskeleton …

The process in which locally confined epithelial malignancies progressively evolve into
invasive cancers is often promoted by unjamming, a phase transition from a solid-like to a liquid-…

Transdermal drug delivery represents an appealing alternative to conventional drug administration
systems. In fact, due to their high patient compliance, the development of dissolvable …

The main aim of cell instructive materials is to guide in a controlled way cellular behavior by
fine-tuning cell-material crosstalk. In the last decades, several efforts have been spent in …

Cell fate is largely determined by interactions that occur at the interface between cells and
their surrounding microenvironment. For this reason, especially in the field of tissue‐…

In materials science, there is a considerable interest in the fabrication of highly engineered
biomaterials that can interact with cells and control their shape. In particular, from the literature…

Bioelectronic platforms can be used for electrophysiology, monitoring and stimulating specific
cellular functions. While planar electroactive materials have been extensively used, in the …

In eukaryotes, cytoplasmic and nuclear volumes are tightly regulated to ensure proper cell
homeostasis. However, current methods to measure cytoplasmic and nuclear volumes, …

… However, this result is opposed to PREP1 depleted cells where increased FA signaling and
actin fibers did not favor nuclear translocation of YAP. These data again showed that cellular …
