Cell Sorting daring Pattern Formation in Dictyostelium [PDF]
Formation of the prestalk-prespore pattern in Dictyostelium was investigated in slugs and submerged clumps of cells. Prestalk and prespore cells were identified by staining with vital dyes, which are shown to be stable cell markers.

Dynamic mesenchyme derived signals are known to direct proper organ formation and cell specification in vivo. Here the authors show in mice that mesenchyme derived Hedgehog and Wnt instruct the formation of the pancreas and beta cells, and that Wnt ...

RhoA/ROCK Signaling Regulates Drp1-Mediated Mitochondrial Fission During Collective Cell Migration
Collective migration plays critical roles in developmental, physiological and pathological processes, and requires a dynamic actomyosin network for cell shape change, cell adhesion and cell-cell communication.

Planar cell polarity protein Celsr1 regulates endothelial adherens junctionsand directed cell rearrangements during lymphatic valve morphogenesis. [PDF]
Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling controls tissue morphogenesis by coordinating collective cell behaviours. Here we show a critical role for the core PCP proteins Celsr1 and Vangl2 in the complex morphogenetic process of intraluminal valve formation ...

Differential segregation in a cell-cell contact interface: the dynamics of the immunological synapse [PDF]
Receptor-ligand couples in the cell-cell contact interface between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell form distinct geometric patterns and undergo spatial rearrangement within the contact interface.

Mathematical model for dynamic cell formation in fast fashion apparel manufacturing stage
This paper presents a mathematical programming model for dynamic cell formation to minimize changeover-related costs (i.e., machine relocation costs and machine setup cost) and inter-cell material handling cost to cope with the volatile production ...

Epigenetic Regulation of Megaspore Mother Cell Formation
In flowering plants, the female gametophyte (FG) initiates from the formation of the megaspore mother cell (MMC). Among a pool of the somatic cells in the ovule primordium, only one hypodermal cell undergoes a transition of cell fate to become the MMC ...

Tendon is covered by a basement membrane epithelium that is required for cell retention and the prevention of adhesion formation [PDF]
The ability of tendons to glide smoothly during muscle contraction is impaired after injury by fibrous adhesions that form between the damaged tendon surface and surrounding tissues. To understand how adhesions form we incubated excised tendons in fibrin
