The protrusion size and net force depend on the cortical tensions of the FCMs and FCs, as well as the adhesion energy. (a) The protrusion size decreases with cortical tension in FCs and FCMs. (b) The net force increases with cortical tension in FCs and FCMs. (c) The protrusion size increases with adhesion energy between the FCs and FCMs. (d) The net force decreases with adhesion energy between the FCs and FCMs. The subscripts ‘a’ and ‘r’ represent the ‘attacking cell’ (the FCM) and the ‘receiving cell’ (the FC), respectively.
