    Cell crowding activates pro-invasive mechanotransduction pathway in high-grade DCIS via TRPV4 inhibition and cell volume reduction

    Xiangning Bu, Nathanael Ashby ... Inhee Chung
    Cell crowding drives a pro-invasive mechanotransduction pathway in high-grade DCIS, inducing TRPV4 inhibition, calcium and cell volume reduction, and increased invasion, with compensatory plasma-membrane TRPV4 relocation indicating pathway activation.
