Physical forces are ubiquitous in biological processes across scales and diverse contexts.
This review highlights the significance of mechanical forces in nervous system development …

Our aim is to present an updated overview of the erythrocyte metabolism highlighting its
richness and complexity. We have manually collected and connected the available …

Mechanosensory feedback of the internal reproductive state drives decisions about when
and where to reproduce. 1 For instance, stretch in the Drosophila reproductive tract …

Mechanotransduction is the process by which cells detect mechanical forces and convert
them into biochemical or electrical signals. This process occurs across various cellular …

The sense of touch is conferred by the conjoint function of somatosensory neurons and skin
cells. These cells meet across a gap filled by a basal lamina, an ancient structure found in …

Members of both the Piezo and transmembrane channel-like (TMC) families are bona fide
mammalian mechanotransducers. In a recent study, Zhang, Shao et al. discovered that …

The sense of touch is conferred by the conjoint function of somatosensory neurons and skin
cells. These cells meet across a gap filled by a basal lamina, an ancient structure found in all …

Mechanosensory feedback of internal reproductive state drives decisions about when and
where to reproduce. For instance, stretch in the Drosophila reproductive tract produced by …

Biological mechanotransduction enables cells to sense and respond to mechanical forces in
their local environment through changes in cell structure and gene expression, resulting in …

Looking back at 2023, it is a pleasure to see so much excellent science in the papers
published in JGP. As well as articles submitted in the traditional way, we published others in …
