Although this balance needs to be tightly regulated to avoid pathologies, such as tumor growth, the regulatory mechanisms, both cell-intrinsic and collective, which ensure tissue steady-state are still poorly understood. Here, we develop a computational model that incorporates basic assumptions of stem cell renewal into distinct populations and mechanical interactions between cells. We find that the model generates unexpected dynamic features: stem cells repel each other in the bulk tissue and are thus found rather isolated, as in a number of in vivo contexts. By mapping the system onto a gas of passive Brownian particles with effective repulsive interactions, that arise from the generated flows of differentiated cells, we show that we can quantitatively describe such stem cell distribution in tissues. The interaction potential between a pair of stem cells decays exponentially with a characteristic length that spans several cell sizes, corresponding to the volume of cells generated per stem cell division. Our findings may help understanding the dynamics of normal and cancerous epithelial tissues."}],"year":"2024","ddc":["530"],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["2542-4653"]},"issue":"4","publisher":"SciPost Foundation","article_processing_charge":"No","month":"04","date_updated":"2024-06-03T11:21:20Z","title":"Mechanically-driven stem cell separation in tissues caused by proliferating daughter cells","acknowledgement":"JE and JK gratefully acknowledge financial support from the Initiative and Networking Fund (IVF) via the grant number ERC-RA-004.
