Meanings of mechanical signals in English

These adhesions facilitate the transmission of mechanical signals that dictate cell behavior.

Exactly how such neurons receive and distribute mechanical signals during touch sensation remains mysterious.

The complete role played by mechanical signals in mediating single-cell polarity, however, remains currently unclear.

R-Spondin 1 is upregulated by mechanical signals and secreted.

Smooth muscle cells are able to adapt rapidly to chemical and mechanical signals impinging on the cell surface.

Thermodynamic modeling predicts that mechanical forces influence microtubule assembly, and hence suggest microtubules as one potential cytoskeletal target for mechanical signals.

How the behaviour of somatic stem cells (SCs) is influenced by mechanical signals remains a black-box in cell biology.

Together, our data strongly support the notion that the mechanical signals from the cellular microenvironment influence neuroblastoma differentiation and do so synergistically with RA.

This review discusses the mechanisms by which these mechanical signals are transduced through cell-matrix and cell-cell adhesions and how this mechanotransduction influences cell processes.
