A mechanical model of multicellular remodelling in epithelial monolayers
Epithelial monolayers are the foundation of many mammalian organs and have a significant impact on numerous biological processes, including the secretion of cytokines, absorption of waste products and barrier function. During organ development epithelia are subject to many external forces due to the growth of the surrounding tissues. They exhibit complex responses to such forces, with deformation…
