Abstract
En 中文
• Microscale defects on collagen-IV surfaces stall epithelial migration • Leader filopodia sense defects; cytoskeletal disruption propagates to followers • Collagen-I or stiffer substrates boost protrusions and prevent migratory stalling • Hypotonic media enhances membrane tension, softens cells, and reduces stalling
