Mechanobiological induction of long-range contractility by diffusing biomolecules and size scaling in cell assemblies

Mechanobiological studies of cell assemblies have generally focused on cells that are, in principle, identical. Here we predict theoretically the effect on cells in culture of locally introduced biochemical signals that diffuse and locally induce cytoskeletal contractility which is initially small....
