Abstract
Mechanomedicine is an emerging interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of mechanobiology to understand, diagnose, and treat disease. Recent advances reveal how mechanical cues such as stiffness, flow, and compression shape cell behavior, tissue function, and disease progression. Leveraging diverse tools, including organ-on-chip platforms, high-resolution force imaging, and synthetic mechanosensors, researchers have uncovered critical links between mechanotransduction and processes such as inflammation, aging, fibrosis, and tumor invasion. From reversible mechanomemory to programmable force-responsive circuits, these discoveries highlight the translational potential of targeting cellular mechanosensing for therapeutic innovation. Moving forward, integrating molecular biology, bioengineering, physics, and medicine will be essential to develop therapies that directly leverage the language of mechanical forces.
