Junctional Tension

Junctional Tension is a biomechanical metric that quantifies the magnitude and distribution of mechanical forces transmitted across adherens junctions in epithelial cell layers, distinguishing it from related mechanical parameters by specifically reflecting the tensile stress localized at cell-cell adhesion sites.
