    ( a ) Schematic of the model at the cellular level. In a confluent tissue, cells rearrange by trading places with their neighbors. To trade places with their neighbors, cells must let go of their adhesions with their initial neighbors, migrate, and then form new adhesions with their new neighbors. ( b ) Schematic of the model’s physical interpretation of tissue fluidity. Tissue fluidity is defined as the neighbor exchange rate in the tissue. The adhesions between cells resist cell movement and act to reduce tissue fluidity. The forces of random cell migration provide the energy for cells to move and therefore increase tissue fluidity. Overall, it is the competition between motility and adhesion which determines the tissue fluidity. ( c ) Schematic of the model’s mathematical interpretation of tissue fluidity. The tissue fluidity, or the rate at which any cell pair swap places in the tissue, is determined by an Arrhenius relationship. The adhesion energy is represented as the energy barrier needed to be overcome to swap places. The random motility is represented as an effective temperature (more specifically, an effective thermal energy), which provides the energy to overcome this energy barrier. The amplitude A is defined as the fluidity of the tissue in the absence of adhesion, which is modeled as the diffusion-limited rate of random motility A = kBTM / γD 2 . A increases with the motility energy, kBTM , and decreases with both the coefficient of viscosity experienced by cells migrating through the tissue, γ , and the distance between cell centers, D , which must be traversed in order for cells to exchange places. Tissue fluidity decreases with the adhesion strength and increases with the motility energy. ( d ) Time-lapse montage of an example simulation initialized with two cell types randomly mixed in equal proportion, under the case of equal homotypic adhesion between cells of the same cell type and no heterotypic adhesion. Top: Color represents a unique identifier for each cell, determined by that cell’s initial position. The mixing of cells in space is indicated by the increasing rearrangement of colors over time. Bottom: Color represents each cell’s cell type, where sorting can be visualized by the formation of spatial domains of the same cell type. ( e ) For the simulation shown in (d), the degree of sorting is plotted as a function of time, using two different metrics of sorting. The left-hand y-axis represents the fraction of each cell’s four nearest neighbors that are the same cell type as that cell, averaged across all cells in the tissue. The right-hand axis represents the average width of domains of the same cell type in the tissue (see Methods ). ( f ) The tissue fluidity (i.e., the rate of neighbor exchange averaged over the tissue) over time (see Methods ). ( g ) Time-lapse montage of the experimental cell-sorting assay ( top ) and its associated best-fit simulation ( bottom ).

    ( a ) Schematic of the model at the cellular level. In a confluent tissue, cells rearrange by trading places with their neighbors. To trade places with their neighbors, cells must let go of their adhesions with their initial neighbors, migrate, and then form new adhesions with their new neighbors. ( b ) Schematic of the model’s physical interpretation of tissue fluidity. Tissue fluidity is defined as the neighbor exchange rate in the tissue. The adhesions between cells resist cell movement and act to reduce tissue fluidity. The forces of random cell migration provide the energy for cells to move and therefore increase tissue fluidity. Overall, it is the competition between motility and adhesion which determines the tissue fluidity. ( c ) Schematic of the model’s mathematical interpretation of tissue fluidity. The tissue fluidity, or the rate at which any cell pair swap places in the tissue, is determined by an Arrhenius relationship. The adhesion energy is represented as the energy barrier needed to be overcome to swap places. The random motility is represented as an effective temperature (more specifically, an effective thermal energy), which provides the energy to overcome this energy barrier. The amplitude A is defined as the fluidity of the tissue in the absence of adhesion, which is modeled as the diffusion-limited rate of random motility A = kBTM / γD 2 . A increases with the motility energy, kBTM , and decreases with both the coefficient of viscosity experienced by cells migrating through the tissue, γ , and the distance between cell centers, D , which must be traversed in order for cells to exchange places. Tissue fluidity decreases with the adhesion strength and increases with the motility energy. ( d ) Time-lapse montage of an example simulation initialized with two cell types randomly mixed in equal proportion, under the case of equal homotypic adhesion between cells of the same cell type and no heterotypic adhesion. Top: Color represents a unique identifier for each cell, determined by that cell’s initial position. The mixing of cells in space is indicated by the increasing rearrangement of colors over time. Bottom: Color represents each cell’s cell type, where sorting can be visualized by the formation of spatial domains of the same cell type. ( e ) For the simulation shown in (d), the degree of sorting is plotted as a function of time, using two different metrics of sorting. The left-hand y-axis represents the fraction of each cell’s four nearest neighbors that are the same cell type as that cell, averaged across all cells in the tissue. The right-hand axis represents the average width of domains of the same cell type in the tissue (see Methods ). ( f ) The tissue fluidity (i.e., the rate of neighbor exchange averaged over the tissue) over time (see Methods ). ( g ) Time-lapse montage of the experimental cell-sorting assay ( top ) and its associated best-fit simulation ( bottom ).
