To squeeze or not: Regulation of cell size by mechanical forces in development and human diseases
Biology of the Cell, Volume 116, Issue 2, February 2024.Mechanical forces, such as stretching/tension, compression, growth‐induced pressure and shear stress (blue) can be sensed and translated into cellular and physiological responses. These pathways include mechanosensitive channels (TRPV2, TRPV4), Piezo, mTOR, Hippo/YAP and autophagy (pink).
