Alignment of cell division axes in directed epithelial cell migration

Alignment of cell division axes in directed epithelial cell migration

Cell division is an essential dynamic event in tissue remodeling during wound healing, cancer and embryogenesis. In collective migration, tensile stresses affect cell shape and polarity, hence, the orientation of the cell division axis is expected to depend on cellular flow patterns. Here, we study...
