Matrix stiffness controls lymphatic vessel formation through regulation of a GATA2-dependent transcriptional program

Mechanical cues are known to influence endothelial cell behavior. Here Frye et al. show that lymphatic endothelial cell progenitors experience varying degrees of matrix stiffness during development, and that matrix stiffness regulates GATA2 expression to drive lymphatic vessel formation.
