ABSTRACT Cells sense the stiffness of their extracellular matrix (ECM) and adapt their behavior accordingly. We investigated how ECM stiffness affects the spatial organization of talin1, a key mechanosensitive focal adhesion protein. Using polyacrylamide (PA) hydrogels with tunable stiffnesses (0.2–188 kPa), we analyzed cell morphology, migration ...

This study successfully developed and evaluated BDNF@RVG‐sEVs, a novel brain‐targeted nanomedicine based on hnmMSC‐derived sEVs, designed to overcome the BBB and enhance neurorestoration. By integrating RVG for enhanced brain targeting and encapsulating BDNF for potent neurorepair, our system address the key limitations of the conventional sEVs and ...

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential. [PDF]
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...
