Volume conservation principle involved in cell lengthening and nucleus movement during tissue morphogenesis.
Tissue morphogenesis is the process in which coordinated movements and shape changes of large numbers of cells form tissues, organs, and the internal body structure. Understanding morphogenetic movements requires precise measurements of whole-cell shape changes over time. Tissue folding and invagination are thought to be facilitated by apical constriction, but the mechanism by which changes nea...
متن کاملForce generation, transmission, and integration during cell and tissue morphogenesis.
Cell shape changes underlie a large set of biological processes ranging from cell division to cell motility. Stereotyped patterns of cell shape changes also determine tissue remodeling events such as extension or invagination. In vitro and cell culture systems have been essential to understanding the fundamental physical principles of subcellular mechanics. These are now complemented by studies...
متن کاملThe control of chemotactic cell movement during Dictyostelium morphogenesis.
Differential cell movement is an important mechanism in the development and morphogenesis of many organisms. In many cases there are indications that chemotaxis is a key mechanism controlling differential cell movement. This can be particularly well studied in the starvation-induced multicellular development of the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum. Upon starvation, up to 10(5) individual ...
متن کاملDictyostelium: a model for regulated cell movement during morphogenesis.
Dictyostelium has played an important role in unraveling the pathways that control cell movement and chemotaxis. Recent studies have started to elucidate the pathways that control cell sorting, morphogenesis, and the establishment of spatial patterning in this system. In doing so, they provide new insights into how cell movements within a multicellular organism are regulated and the importance ...
متن کاملCompartmentalisation of Rho regulators directs cell invagination during tissue morphogenesis.
During development, small RhoGTPases control the precise cell shape changes and movements that underlie morphogenesis. Their activity must be tightly regulated in time and space, but little is known about how Rho regulators (RhoGEFs and RhoGAPs) perform this function in the embryo. Taking advantage of a new probe that allows the visualisation of small RhoGTPase activity in Drosophila, we presen...
