Quantifying cellular and subcellular stretches in embryonic lung epithelia under peristalsis: where to look for mechanosensing

Peristalsis begins in the lung as soon as the smooth muscle (SM) forms, and persists until birth. As the prenatal lung is filled with liquid, SM action can, through lumen pressure, deform tissues far from the immediately adjacent tissues. Stretching of embryonic tissues has been shown to have potent...
