Regulation of Vertebrate Planar Cell Polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Planar cell polarity (PCP) provides positional information to a field of cells, coordinating the orientation of polarized structures or the direction of polarized cell movements.

Null and hypomorph Prickle1 alleles in mice phenocopy human Robinow syndrome and disrupt signaling downstream of Wnt5a

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
Planar cell polarity (PCP) signaling plays a critical role in tissue morphogenesis. In mammals, disruption of three of the six “core PCP” components results in polarity-dependent defects with rotated cochlear hair cell stereocilia and open neural tube ...

CELSR1, a core planar cell polarity protein, features a weakly adhesive and flexible cadherin ectodomain.

open access: yesStructure
Planar cell polarity (PCP), essential to multicellular developmental processes, arises when cells polarize and align across tissues. Central to PCP is CELSR1, an atypical cadherin featuring a long ectodomain with nine extracellular cadherin (EC) repeats,

A New Spin on Planar Cell Polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The generation of planar cell polarity (PCP) and tissue shape during morphogenesis is tightly linked, but it is not clear how. Aigouy et al. (2010) now show in the developing Drosophila wing that PCP initially has a radial orientation that becomes ...

Planar cell polarity and the kidney. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Planar cell polarity (PCP) is the uniform orientation and alignment of a group of cells orthogonal to the apical-basal axis within a tissue. Originally described in insects, it is now known that PCP is required for many processes in vertebrates ...

Regions within a single epidermal cell of Drosophila can be planar polarised independently

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Planar cell polarity (PCP), the coordinated and consistent orientation of cells in the plane of epithelial sheets, is a fundamental and conserved property of animals and plants.

PTK7-Src Signaling at Epithelial Cell Contacts Mediates Spatial Organization of Actomyosin and Planar Cell Polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
SummaryActomyosin contractility plays a key role in tissue morphogenesis. During mammalian development, PTK7 regulates epithelial morphogenesis and planar cell polarity (PCP) through modulation of actomyosin contractility, but the underlying mechanism is

Roles of planar cell polarity pathways in the development of neutral tube defects

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2011
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are the second most common birth defect in humans. Despite many advances in the understanding of NTDs and the identification of many genes related to NTDs, the fundamental etiology for the majority of cases of NTDs remains ...

Ubiquitin Connects with Planar Cell Polarity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Planar cell polarity (PCP) regulates the orientation of cells in epithelia and of mesenchymal cells during gastrulation. In this issue, Narimatsu et al. (2009) report that the Smurf E3 ubiquitin ligases are required for localized protein degradation of a
