Tracheal branch repopulation precedes induction of the Drosophila dorsal air sac primordium.
The dorsal air sacs supply oxygen to the flight muscles of the Drosophila adult. This tracheal organ grows from an epithelial tube (the air sac primordium (ASP)) that arises during the third larval instar (L3) from a wing-disc-associated tracheal branch. Since the ASP is generated by a program of both morphogenesis and cell proliferation and since the larval tracheal branches are populated by c...
متن کاملMechanical Induction of Twist in the Drosophila Foregut/Stomodeal Primordium
BACKGROUND Morphogenetic movements are closely regulated by the expression of developmental genes. Here I examine whether developmental gene expression can in turn be mechanically regulated by morphogenetic movements. I have analyzed the effects of mechanical stress on the expression of Twist, which is normally expressed only in the most ventral cells of the cellular blastoderm embryo under the...
متن کاملRegulation of Drosophila matrix metalloprotease Mmp2 is essential for wing imaginal disc:trachea association and air sac tubulogenesis.
The Drosophila Dorsal Air Sac Primordium (ASP) is a tracheal tube that grows toward Branchless FGF-expressing cells in the wing imaginal disc. We show that the ASP arises from a tracheal branch that invades the basal lamina of the disc to juxtapose directly with disc cells. We examined the role of matrix metalloproteases (Mmps), and found that reducing Mmp2 activity perturbed disc-trachea assoc...
متن کاملA genetic mosaic analysis with a repressible cell marker screen to identify genes involved in tracheal cell migration during Drosophila air sac morphogenesis.
Branching morphogenesis of the Drosophila tracheal system relies on the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling pathway. The Drosophila FGF ligand Branchless (Bnl) and the FGFR Breathless (Btl/FGFR) are required for cell migration during the establishment of the interconnected network of tracheal tubes. However, due to an important maternal contribution of members of the FGFR pathway...
متن کاملWill branch for food-nutrient-dependent tracheal remodeling in Drosophila.
Mammalian vasculature, and the analogous tracheal system in Drosophila, can respond dynamically to hypoxic conditions to maintain a constant supply of oxygen to peripheral tissues. In a recent study published in Cell, Linneweber et al (2014) reveal that tracheal plasticity can also be regulated by nutrient availability, through both systemic and local insulin signaling. They also show that spec...
