Shear-induced damped oscillations in an epithelium depend on actomyosin contraction and E-cadherin cell adhesion

Shear forces between cells occur during global changes in multicellular organization during morphogenesis and tissue growth, yet how cells sense shear forces and propagate a response across a tissue is unknown. We found that applying exogenous shear at the midline of an epithelium induced a local, s...
