▼a Mechanobiology, a relatively young field that centers on how external physical forces on cells or tissues and their intrinsic mechanical properties can influence physiology and disease, has become a pillar in cell biology. Indeed, cells experien |

▼a Mechanotransduction at the cellular-scale has perceptible, large-scale implications such as proper organism development, our ability to sense sound and touch, function and homeostasis of organ systems, and disease progression. Previous work in m |

▼a Here we demonstrate how the functional expression of the E. coli membrane tension gated mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) in mammalian cells endows the cells with new mechano-sensing capabilities such as the activation of Msc |

▼a The first major contribution in this thesis was to show that MscL can be expressed in mammalian cells, localize to cellular membranes, and responds to membrane tension via osmotic down-shock. The second contribution was demonstrating that the ac |

▼a Lastly, we investigated the effect of MscL mechanotransduction on the cell function of migration in cancer metastasis and then more specifically, 3D-confinements. Our findings in our in vivo mouse model showed that there was a marked reduction i |
