Editorial: pattern formation in biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Over the past two decades, the study of pattern formation in biology has attracted the attention of many scientists from diverse fields, ranging from developmental biology, cell biology and synthetic biology, to physics, mathematics and computer science.

The kinase regulator mob1 acts as a patterning protein for stentor morphogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2014
Morphogenesis and pattern formation are vital processes in any organism, whether unicellular or multicellular. But in contrast to the developmental biology of plants and animals, the principles of morphogenesis and pattern formation in single cells ...

Variability in the control of cell division underlies sepal epidermal patterning in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2010
How growth and proliferation are precisely controlled in organs during development and how the regulation of cell division contributes to the formation of complex cell type patterns are important questions in developmental biology.

Reactive/Less-cooperative individuals advance population’s synchronization: Modeling of Dictyostelium discoideum concerted signaling during aggregation phase

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Orchestrated chemical signaling of single cells sounds to be a linchpin of emerging organization and multicellular life form. The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is a well-studied model organism to explore overall pictures of grouped behavior in ...

Synthetic spatial patterning in bacteria: advances based on novel diffusible signals

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, 2022
Summary Engineering multicellular patterning may help in the understanding of some fundamental laws of pattern formation and thus may contribute to the field of developmental biology.

Synthetic developmental biology: new tools to deconstruct and rebuild developmental systems

open access: yesSeminars in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Summary Technological advances have driven many recent advances in developmental biology. Light sheet imaging can reveal single-cell dynamics in living three-dimensional tissues, whereas single-cell genomic methods open the door to a complete catalogue ...

Developmental gene regulatory networks in sea urchins and what we can learn from them [version 1; referees: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Sea urchin embryos begin zygotic transcription shortly after the egg is fertilized.  Throughout the cleavage stages a series of transcription factors are activated and, along with signaling through a number of pathways, at least 15 different cell types ...

Fetal functional brain age assessed from universal developmental indices obtained from neuro-vegetative activity patterns. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Fetal brain development involves the development of the neuro-vegetative (autonomic) control that is mediated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Disturbances of the fetal brain development have implications for diseases in later postnatal life.

Dynamics of cell polarity in tissue morphogenesis: a comparative view from Drosophila and Ciona [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Tissues in developing embryos exhibit complex and dynamic rearrangements that shape forming organs, limbs, and body axes. Directed migration, mediolateral intercalation, lumen formation, and other rearrangements influence the topology and topography of ...
