Sculpting organ innervation.
Neurotrophic growth factors, including nerve growth factor (NGF) and glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), have well-established roles in promoting the innervation of target tissues, yet little is known about how the temporal and organ-specific expression of these factors is regulated. A new study reveals that NGF is a direct target of the well-characterized peptide factor endothelin-1 (ET-...
متن کاملOrgan sculpting by patterned extracellular matrix stiffness
How organ-shaping mechanical imbalances are generated is a central question of morphogenesis, with existing paradigms focusing on asymmetric force generation within cells. We show here that organs can be sculpted instead by patterning anisotropic resistance within their extracellular matrix (ECM). Using direct biophysical measurements of elongating Drosophila egg chambers, we document robust me...
متن کاملImmunomodulation Stimulates the Innervation of Engineered Tooth Organ
The sensory innervation of the dental mesenchyme is essential for tooth function and protection. Sensory innervation of the dental pulp is mediated by axons originating from the trigeminal ganglia and is strictly regulated in time. Teeth can develop from cultured re-associations between dissociated dental epithelial and mesenchymal cells from Embryonic Day 14 mouse molars, after implantation un...
متن کاملVolumetric Surface Sculpting Volumetric Surface Sculpting
In computer graphics, two types of geometric representations are widely used: surfaces and volumes. Surfaces are in nitely thin skins de ning the boundary of an object, and have been successful in modeling realistic appearances. However, their lack of information about the solid nature of objects make them inadequate for many applications. Volumes represent the entire solid geometry of an objec...
متن کاملSound Sculpting: Manipulating Sound through Virtual Sculpting
We have prototyped sound sculpting, an environment in which a sound artist or musician can create, edit or perform sounds by changing parameters, like position, orientation and shape of a virtual object as input device, that can only be perceived through its visual and acoustic representations. We implemented sound sculpting by extending a realtime, visual programming language called Max/FTS, w...
