Mechanobiology
Mechanobiology is a peer reviewed, open access journal, focused on the impact of external forces and cues from the extracellular matrix on intracellular mechanotransduction processes.
Mechanobiology serves as a multidisciplinary platform spanning physical sciences, materials engineering, mechanics, molecular biology, and clinical studies.
The journal Mechanobiology is dedicated to disseminating the latest research findings concerning the impact of external forces and cues from the extracellular matrix on intracellular mechanotransduction processes. Additionally, the journal focuses on how biophysical signals play a crucial role in regulating tissue homeostasis and understanding pathological conditions. This journal serves as a multidisciplinary platform that spans various fields including physical sciences, materials engineering, mechanics, molecular biology, and clinical studies. It is committed to covering a wide array of pertinent and intriguing topics, such as:
- Cell-matrix interactions
- Biomaterials and nano/micro-bioengineering
- Matrix biology and tissue mechanics
- Cellular mechanotransduction
- Cytoskeleton dynamics and mechanosensitive machineries
- Nuclear mechanics and epigenetic modifications
- Mechano-tools and mechano-engineering
- 3D culture platforms and tissue engineering
- Organoids and patterning
- Mechanobiology in wound healing and diseases
- Mechano-therapies and clinical translation
Authors can submit original research articles, review articles and commentaries, as well as short form letters to the editor.
