文摘Cell behaviors are regulated by the physical cues in their microenvironment,where extracellular fluid(ECF)viscosity is an important yet relatively underexplored cue.Recent evidence indicates that ECF viscosity plays a critical role in regulating cellular processes with pathological relevance to various diseases,such as cardiovascular related diseases,inflammatory diseases,and cancer.
