Investigating the rules of cell-to-cell interaction during pre-somitic mesoderm elongation I discovered the field of developmental biology through independent reading during the first year of my undergraduate biomedical sciences program. ...Posted by the Node, on 24 November 2021
For our final Development presents... webinar of 2021, we celebrate the 25th anniversary of our zebrafish issue.Posted by Michael Smutny, on 9 February 2021
A postdoctoral research position is available in the laboratory of Dr. Michael Smutny at the Centre for Mechanochemical Cell Biology at Warwick Medical School, UK. The lab is focused on ...Posted by ttcolak, on 21 September 2019
Written by Tugba Colak-Champollion Story behind our recent paper in Current Biology “Cadherin-Mediated Cell Coupling Coordinates Chemokine Sensing across Collectively Migrating Cells” (Tugba Colak-Champollion, Ling Lan, Alisha R. Jadhav, Naoya ...Posted by Michelle Collins, on 23 August 2018
In our recently published paper https://elifesciences.org/articles/34880, we report that the transcription factor Pitx2c has an unexpected role during gastrulation, where it acts cell non-autonomously to promote mesendodermal cell migration required ...Posted by the Node Interviews, on 6 July 2018
Contact inhibition of locomotion is a widespread phenomenon in migrating cells. However, cells often migrate collectively as a sheet, raising the question of how contact inhibition is overcome in these ...Posted by the Node Interviews, on 12 March 2018
Neuronal migration is critical for mammalian brain development. In many migrating neurons, the nucleus translocates from the trailing to the leading edge of the cell in a manner dependent on ...Posted by the Node Interviews, on 18 January 2018
Vertebrate brain development is characterised by cell migration, as neurons are often born far from where they need to end up. Migration is regulated by guidance cues and their receptors, ...Posted by IRBBarcelona, on 14 August 2015
The protein E-Cadherin (E-Cad) is a kind of adhesive that keeps cells tightly bound together, thus favouring the organisation of tissues and organs. Scientists at the Institute for Research in ...Posted by Elsa Mazari and Aitana Perea-Gomez, on 17 June 2014
Electroporation: an efficient technique for embryologists During embryonic development, the specification of different cell types giving rise to the future organs involves a precise spatiotemporal regulation of cell proliferation, migration, ...
