Researchers have identified a novel mechanosensitive regulation of epithelial tube contraction. Many of the fundamental processes of life rely on biological structures known as epithelial tubes. These tubes serve to transport various gases, liquids and cells around the body. With each breath, for example, epithelial tubes transport oxygen to the lungs.
