Mechanical Coupling Between Cells

Mechanical Coupling Between Cells is a structural and functional interaction that belongs to the category of cell junctions, specifically characterized by the direct physical linkage of the cytoskeletal elements of adjacent cells through transmembrane adhesion proteins, thereby enabling the transmission of mechanical forces across the cellular network.
