Cytoskeletal tension regulates mesodermal spatial organization and subsequent vascular fate [Biophysics and Computational Biology]

Morphogenesis during human development relies on the interplay between physiochemical cues that are mediated in part by cellular density and cytoskeletal tension. Here, we interrogated these factors on vascular lineage specification during human-induced pluripotent stem-cell (hiPSC) fate decision. We found that independent of chemical cues, spatially presented physical cues induce...
