Revealing the role of epithelial mechanics and macrophage clearance during pulmonary epithelial injury recovery in the presence of carbon nanotubes
Summary
A wound-healing model for lung epithelium in which a small injury is created by photobleaching-induced apoptosis, leaving the dead cells in place. Epithelial cells push the apoptotic cells away while macrophages engulf them; carbon nanotubes disturb this repair by thickening actin, maturing focal adhesions and raising traction forces, which slows cell migration.
