Exposing Cell-Itary Confinement: Understanding the Mechanisms of Confined Single Cell Migration,s, and extracellular matrix. The molecular machinery that cells utilize to migrate through confining pores or microtracks shares both similarities and differences with that used in unconfined 2D migration. Depending on the exact properties of the local microenvironment and cell contractile state, ce

Engineered Models of Metastasis with Application to Study Cancer Biomechanics,ional monolayer cultures cannot recapitulate the complex microenvironment and chemical and mechanical cues that tumor cells experience during their metastatic journey, nor the complexity of their interactions with other, noncancerous cells. As alternative approaches, various engineered models have b

Biomechanics of the Circulating Tumor Cell Microenvironment, and exposed to the immune system and hemodynamic forces leading to the conclusion that life as a CTC is “nasty, brutish, and short.” While there is much evidence to support this assertion, the mechanisms underlying this are much less clear. In this chapter we will specifically focus on biomechanica
