Errors in early embryogenesis are a cause of sporadic cell death and developmental failure1,2. Phagocytic activity has a central role in scavenging apoptotic cells in differentiated tissues3–6. However, how apoptotic cells are cleared in the blastula embryo in the absence of specialized immune cells remains unknown. Here we show that the surface ep...
The physical microenvironment regulates cell behavior during tissue development and homeostasis. How single cells decode information about their geometrical shape under mechanical stress and physical space constraints within tissues remains largely unknown. Here, using a zebrafish model, we show that the nucleus, the biggest cellular organelle, fun...
The physical microenvironment regulates cell behavior during tissue development and homeostasis. How single cells decode information about their geometrical shape under mechanical stress and physical space constraints within their local environment remains largely unknown. Here we show that the nucleus, the biggest cellular organelle, functions as...
Tissue internalisation is a key morphogenetic mechanism by which embryonic tissues generate complex internal organs and a number of studies of epithelia have outlined a general view of tissue internalisation. Here we have used quantitative live imaging and mutant analysis to determine whether similar mechanisms are responsible for internalisation i...

Epigenetiikka on viime aikoina herättänyt mediassa huomiota: toinen toistaan hämmästyttävämmät tutkimustulokset kertovat elintapojemme vaikuttavan omaan ja jälkeläistemme hyvinvointiin geenien
toiminnassa tapahtuvien periytyvien muutosten kautta. Mitä ilmiön taustalta löytyy, eli mitä geenien epigeneettinen säätely tarkoittaa, kuinka se toimii ja m...
