ECM as a cell-cycle brake. Led by Liyuan Sui (Dahmann lab), we show that the ECM gates Yorkie nuclear entry to halt proliferation at final size via G2 arrest in the Drosophila wing disc. ECM degradation later enables re-entry proper adult wing size. Link 👇 #Mechanobiology #ECM

Extracellular matrix restrains cell-cycle progression by nuclear exclusion of Yorkie in Drosophila

Sui et al. reveal a role for extracellular matrix in restraining cell-cycle progression in late-larval-stage Drosophila wing discs through inhibiting nuclear accumulation of Yorkie.

New paper out: AFM-tip fluctuations inside the actin cortex reveal that effective temperature can remain unchanged while time-irreversibility/entropy production drop (turnover inhibition). #CellMechanics #ActiveMatter #Nonequilibrium @PoLDresden @tudresden_de

Time Irreversibility, Entropy Production, and Effective Temperature Are Independently Regulated in...

Atomic force microscope observations of dividing human cells suggest that effective temperature alone cannot reliably gauge how far a living system is from equilibrium.

We may need a fourth law of thermodynamics for living systems

The laws of thermodynamics don't accurately account for the complex processes in living cells – do we need a new one to accurately measure the ways living systems are out of equilibrium?

Why do secondary #tumors go for #MET during the metastatic cascade? Our new study suggests that immune evasion—rather than faster proliferation—might give them the edge. 👉 cell.com/iscience/fulltext/S… #CancerResearch #TumorBiology #Immunology #Metastasis
