Mechanics-driven nuclear localization of YAP can be reversed by N-cadherin ligation in mesenchymal stem cells

Mesenchymal stem cells adopt differentiation pathways based upon mechanical cues in their environment which change throughout development. Here the authors develop a material and culture system to modify and measure the degree to which cells retain cumulative effects of mechanosensing to explore how...
