Discreteness of cell–surface contacts affects spatio-temporal dynamics, adhesion, and proliferation of mouse embryonic stem cells

The self-renewal and lineage-specific differentiation of stem cells are regulated by interactions with their microenvironments, called stem cell niche. Stem cells receive both biochemical and biophysical cues from their niche, which leads to the activation of signaling pathways, resulting in the mod...
