  • Cellular Mechanotransduction

    Diverse Perspectives from Molecules to Tissues

    Edited by Mohammad R. K. Mofrad, Roger D. Kamm ...
    'Mechanotransduction' is the term for the ability, first described by 19th-century anatomist Julius Wolff, of living tissues to sense mechanical stress and respond by tissue remodeling. More recently, the scope of mechanotransduction has been expanded to include the sensation of stress, its translation into a biochemical signal, and the sequence of biological responses it produces. This book looks ... Read more
