Abstract

This document is an editorial published in the journal Frontiers in Cell & Developmental Biology. It discusses the topic of tumor cell mechanosensitivity and its molecular basis. The editorial highlights the importance of physical signals in the microenvironment, such as matrix stiffness and tension, in influencing cancer cell behavior. The document also provides an overview of the articles included in the research topic, which cover various aspects of mechanobiology in cancer development and progression. The authors emphasize the need for further research on the role of mechanical properties in cancer cells and their interactions with other cell types. [Extracted from the article]
