  • An observation that cells at the edge of a healing wound readily undergo intercalation leads to the finding that tissue fluidity is crucial for effective wound closure.

  • Stress relaxation in cell monolayers shows remarkable similarities with that of single cells, suggesting the rheology of epithelial tissues is mediated by the actomyosin cortex—with dynamics reminiscent of those on a cellular level.

  • Acton and colleagues examine the mechanics of lymph node swelling during the course of an immune response. They find tissue tension regulates fibroblastic reticular cell (FRC) proliferation during lymph node expansion and that podoplanin (PDPN)–CLEC-2 signaling in FRCs regulates this process, which in turn regulates T cell activation.

  • Tissues undergo changes in their mechanical and material properties through alterations in cytoskeleton organization, extracellular matrix adhesion and cell–cell connectivity. These mechanical state transitions orchestrate cell proliferation and movement and tissue growth during development, in adult tissue repair and in disease contexts.
