Intrinsic cell rheology drives junction maturation

Intrinsic cell rheology drives junction maturation

How intrinsic cell properties such as stiffness contribute to cell-cell junction stabilization is not well described. Here they show that higher levels of intrinsic cell mechanics at the cortex, cytoskeleton and nucleus of neighboring cells promote junctional maturation.
