Tubulogenesis: Zipping up Your Fly
نویسندگان
چکیده
In animals, rearrangements of the junctions between cells are fundamental to morphogenesis. Recent work has revealed the acrobatics that Drosophila tracheal cells perform as they intercalate to form unicellular tubes.

Id1 induces tubulogenesis by regulating endothelial cell adhesion and cytoskeletal organization through β1-integrin and Rho-kinase signalling.
The inhibitor of differentiation 1 (Id1) protein is required for tubulogenesis, but the molecular signalling pathways remain unclear. Overexpression (Id1-t) or down-regulation (si-Id1) of Id-1 in cell lines, were used to study the function of Id1. The expression of Id1 and β1-integrin was assessed by Western blotting. Up-regulation of Id1 in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) a...
متن کاملEpithelial tubulogenesis through branching morphogenesis: relevance to collecting system development.
Branching tubulogenesis of the ureteric bud, which gives rise to the urinary collecting system, is of considerable clinical interest because this process plays a major role in determining nephron number in the kidney. Data from in vitro model systems, including organ culture of the embryonic kidney and renal epithelial cells cultured in three-dimensional collagen matrices, indicate that growth ...
متن کاملConditional switches for extracellular matrix patterning in Drosophila melanogaster.
An F(1) mutagenesis strategy was developed to identify conditional mutations affecting extracellular matrix (ECM) patterning. Tubulogenesis requires coordinated movement of epithelial cells and deposition of a multilayered ECM. In the Drosophila ovary, an epithelium of follicle cells creates the eggshells, including the paired tubular dorsal appendages (DAs) that act as breathing tubes for the ...
متن کاملA targeted gain-of-function screen identifies genes affecting salivary gland morphogenesis/tubulogenesis in Drosophila.
During development individual cells in tissues undergo complex cell-shape changes to drive the morphogenetic movements required to form tissues. Cell shape is determined by the cytoskeleton and cell-shape changes critically depend on a tight spatial and temporal control of cytoskeletal behavior. We have used the formation of the salivary glands in the Drosophila embryo, a process of tubulogenes...
