Growth-induced buckling of an epithelial layer.
- Abstract:
-
We use a proof-of-concept experiment and two mathematical models to explore growth-induced tissue buckling, as may occur in colorectal crypt formation. Our experiment reveals how growth of a cultured epithelial monolayer on a thin flexible substrate can cause out-of-plane substrate deflections. We describe this system theoretically using a 'bilayer' model in which a growing cell layer adheres to a thin compressible elastic beam. We compare this with the 'supported-monolayer' model due to Edwa...
