Dynamic Image-Based Modelling of Kidney Branching Morphogenesis

, 2013
Kidney branching morphogenesis has been studied extensively, but the mechanism that defines the branch points is still elusive. Here we obtained a 2D movie of kidney branching morphogenesis in culture to test different models of branching morphogenesis ...

Tentacle morphogenesis in hydra [PDF]

, 1990
Stimulation of tentacle-specific cell differentiation by the neuropeptide head activator was investigated in Hydra magnipapillata. Tentacle-specific sensory nerve cells were identified by a monoclonal antibody, NV1.

Giant FAZ10 is required for flagellum attachment zone stabilization and furrow positioning in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

, 2017
The flagellum and flagellum attachment zone (FAZ) are important cytoskeletal structures in trypanosomatids, being required for motility, cell division and cell morphogenesis.

Eph-ephrin signaling couples endothelial cell sorting and arterial specification

Nature Communications
Cell segregation allows the compartmentalization of cells with similar fates during morphogenesis, which can be enhanced by cell fate plasticity in response to local molecular and biomechanical cues.

Wood identification of Japanese Shinto deity statues in Matsunoo-taisha Shrine in Kyoto by synchrotron X-ray microtomography and conventional microscopy methods

Journal of Wood Science, 2019
Research on the wood species of Japanese Buddhist statues has an over 60 years’ history and recently many Buddhist “Ichiboku” statues carved out of a single bole made from the Nara to Heian periods were scientifically revealed to be made of Torreya ...

Direct activation of tRNA methyltransferase-like 1 (Mettl1) gene by thyroid hormone receptor implicates a role in adult intestinal stem cell development and proliferation during Xenopus tropicalis metamorphosis

Cell & Bioscience, 2020
Background Thyroid hormone (T3) plays an important role in vertebrate development. Compared to the postembryonic development of uterus-enclosed mammalian embryos, T3-dependent amphibian metamorphosis is advantageous for studying the function of T3 and T3

Polarized cortical tension drives zebrafish epiboly movements [PDF]

, 2016
The principles underlying the biomechanics of morphogenesis are largely unknown. Epiboly is an essential embryonic event in which three tissues coordinate to direct the expansion of the blastoderm.

Integrins and morphogenesis

Development, 1993
ABSTRACT The Drosophila position specific (PS) integrins consist of two cell surface heterodimers, PS1 (αPS1βPS) and PS2 (αPS2βPS), which are expressed on complementary sides of attachments between cell layers and are essential for these attachments.

ELMO2 is an essential regulator of carotid artery development

Nature Communications
Engulfment and cell motility 2 (ELMO2) is a cytoskeletal adaptor protein necessary for cell migration and apoptotic cell removal. Loss-of-function mutations in ELMO2 cause intraosseous vascular malformation (VMOS), a human disease involving progressive ...
