T Cells Tear Apart Confining Extracellular Matrix Via a Breaststroke-like Motion to Generate Migration Paths
Byung Hang Ha, Peter Xie, Benjamin Johns…·Ovijit Chaudhuri
This study shows T cells generate migration paths in confining ECMs by tearing them apart with breaststroke-like motion, finding that shear strength, not stiffness or pore size, correlates with migration.
