This synergetic, cross-disciplinary effort to increase the fidelity of computational algorithms will lead to a better understanding of the complex biomechanics of cell movement, and stimulate progress in research on related active matter systems, from suspensions of bacteria and synthetic swimmers to cell tissues and cytoskeleton.Cell motility and collective motion are among the most important themes in biology and statistical physics of out-of-equilibrium systems, and crucial for morphogenesis, wound healing, and immune response in eukaryotic organisms. It is also relevant for the development of effective treatment strategies for diseases such as cancer, and for the design of bioactive surfaces for cell sorting and manipulation. Substrate-based cell motility is, however, a very complex process as regulatory pathways and physical force generation mechanisms are intertwined. To understand the interplay between adhesion, force generation and motility, an abundance of computational models have been proposed in recent years, from finite element to immerse interface methods and phase field approaches.Th | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Adhesion and Cell Motility; Adhesive Substrate; Cell Motility Models; Cell Movement Biomechanics; Chemic | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-24448-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-79629-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-24448-8Series ISSN 1618-7210 Series E-ISSN 2197-5647 | issn_series | 1618-7210 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016 |
