Cells can exhibit durotaxis when they encounter a stiffness gradient in the extracellular matrix.
当细胞在细胞外基质中遇到刚度梯度时,可能会表现出硬度趋向性。
In wound healing models, fibroblasts often show durotaxis, migrating toward stiffer regions that provide stronger adhesion and traction forces.
在伤口愈合模型中,成纤维细胞常表现出硬度趋向性,迁移到更硬的区域,因为那里能提供更强的黏附与牵引力。
