Apical constriction and invagination: a very self-reliant couple.
A fundamental phenomenon in development is the capacity of sheets of cells to bend inward, thereby positioning some of the cells from these sheets below the surface on which they were originally placed. This process, known as invagination, generates folds or depressions in a previously uniform surface. Eventually, these groups of cells separate from their original neighbors and generate new int...
متن کاملUncoupling apical constriction from tissue invagination
Apical constriction is a widely utilized cell shape change linked to folding, bending and invagination of polarized epithelia. It remains unclear how apical constriction is regulated spatiotemporally during tissue invagination and how this cellular process contributes to tube formation in different developmental contexts. Using Drosophila salivary gland (SG) invagination as a model, we show tha...
متن کاملApical constriction and epithelial invagination are regulated by BMP activity
Epithelial invagination is a morphological process in which flat cell sheets transform into three-dimensional structures through bending of the tissue. It is accompanied by apical constriction, in which the apical cell surface is reduced in relation to the basal cell surface. Although much is known about the intra-cellular molecular machinery driving apical constriction and epithelial invaginat...
متن کاملA Trio-RhoA-Shroom3 pathway is required for apical constriction and epithelial invagination.
Epithelial invagination is a common feature of embryogenesis. An example of invagination morphogenesis occurs during development of the early eye when the lens placode forms the lens pit. This morphogenesis is accompanied by a columnar-to-conical cell shape change (apical constriction or AC) and is known to be dependent on the cytoskeletal protein Shroom3. Because Shroom3-induced AC can be Rock...
متن کاملRegulated Crb accumulation controls apical constriction and invagination in Drosophila tracheal cells.
Many epithelial tissues undergo extensive remodelling during morphogenesis. How their epithelial features, such as apicobasal polarity or adhesion, are maintained and remodelled and how adhesion and polarity proteins contribute to morphogenesis are two important questions in development. Here, we approach these issues by investigating the role of the apical determinant protein Crumbs (Crb) duri...
