🤔 How do mechanical forces shape the behavior and organization of living matter?

👩‍🔬Understanding how these forces influence material properties, molecular composition, and biological function is a key focus of the @FischerFriedLab at PoL.

ECM as a cell-cycle brake. Led by Liyuan Sui (Dahmann lab), we show that the ECM gates Yorkie nuclear entry to halt proliferation at final size via G2 arrest in the Drosophila wing disc. ECM degradation later enables re-entry + proper adult wing size. Link 👇 #Mechanobiology #ECM

New paper out: AFM-tip fluctuations inside the actin cortex reveal that effective temperature can remain unchanged while time-irreversibility/entropy production drop (turnover inhibition). #CellMechanics #ActiveMatter #Nonequilibrium @PoLDresden @tudresden_de

How do individual proteins sculpt the epithelial basement membrane? Our new study uncovers their role in network structure, nematic alignment & fractal patterns. 🔗 https://t.co/C164TQcgWr... #CellBiology #ECM #BasementMembrane #Drosophila

Why do secondary #tumors go for #MET during the metastatic cascade? Our new study suggests that immune evasion—rather than faster proliferation—might give them the edge.
