Computational modeling of three-dimensional ECM-rigidity sensing to guide directed cell migration

Filopodia have a key role in sensing both chemical and mechanical cues in surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM). However, quantitative understanding is still missing in the filopodialmechanosensing of local ECM stiffness, resulting from dynamic interactions between filopodia and the surrounding 3D...
