A coupled model of neovessel growth and matrix mechanics describes and predicts angiogenesis in vitro

During angiogenesis, sprouting microvessels interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) by degrading and reorganizing the matrix, applying traction forces, and producing deformation. Morphometric features of the resulting microvascular network are affected by the interaction between the matrix and...
