Schwann cell durotaxis can be guided by physiologically relevant stiffness gradients

BACKGROUND: Successful nerve regeneration depends upon directed migration of morphologically specialized repair state Schwann cells across a nerve defect. Although several groups have studied directed migration of Schwann cells in response to chemical or topographic cues, the current understanding o...
