Mechanically induced alterations in chromatin architecture guide the balance between cell plasticity and mechanical memory
Phenotypic plasticity, or adaptability, of a cell determines its ability to survive and function within changing cellular environments. Changes in the mechanical environment, ranging from stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM) to physical stress such as tension, compression, and shear, are crit...
