AD simulation of the clustering of integrin receptors against elastic substrate with a glycocalyx. Panel (a) shows a schematic of the simulation, and panel (b) shows the progressive accumulation of receptor clusters on the adhesive interface, driven by resistance from both the glycocalyx and the stiffness of the substrate.
