Muscle versus Snail: Muscle wins [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2016 Epithelial–mesenchymal transitions (EMTs) are often governed by the transcription factor Snail and entail the loss of apical junctions from epithelial cells. In this issue, Weng and Wieschaus (2016. J Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201508056) report that actomyosin contractility can strengthen junctions to override Snail-dependent junctional ...

In Vivo Time- Resolved Microtomography Reveals the Mechanics of the Blowfly Flight Motor [PDF]
, 2014 Dipteran flies are amongst the smallest and most agile of flying animals. Their wings are driven indirectly by large power muscles, which cause cyclical deformations of the thorax that are amplified through the intricate wing hinge.
