In this issue of Developmental Cell, Doyle and colleagues identify periodic anterior contraction as a characteristic feature of fibroblasts and mesenchymal cancer cells embedded in 3D collagen gels. This contractile mechanism generates a matrix prestrain required for crawling in fibrous 3D environments.
