3D cell sheets formed via cell-driven buckling-delamination of patterned thin films
Complex geometries such as folds and protrusions in various organs are formed by the wrinkling/buckling of flat epithelial sheets. This morphogenesis is considered to be triggered by mechanical instabilities between the epithelial sheet and the mesenchyme foundation, similar to that observed in non-...
