    Compartmentalized oskar degradation in the germ plasm safeguards germline development

    Catherine E Eichler, Anna C Hakes ... Elizabeth R Gavis
    RNP granules confer temporal and spatial regulation of oskar mRNA degradation to minimize inheritance of oskar mRNAby germ cells and thereby protect germline development.

    Lola regulates Drosophila adult midgut homeostasis via non-canonical hippo signaling

    Xue Hao, Shimin Wang ... Lei Zhang
    The transcription factor Lola is defined as a non-canonical Hippo signaling component essential for Drosophila midgut homeostasis via its interaction with Warts and suppression on Dref and SkpA expression levels.

    Stepwise polarisation of developing bilayered epidermis is mediated by aPKC and E-cadherin in zebrafish

    Prateek Arora, Shivali Dongre ... Mahendra Sonawane
    Polarity cascade initiated by aPKC in the periderm is transduced by adherens junction component E-cadherin to the basal epidermis during the development of zebrafish bilayered epidermis.

    tec-1 kinase negatively regulates regenerative neurogenesis in planarians

    Alexander Karge, Nicolle A Bonar ... Christian P Petersen
    RNAi screening in planarians finds that inhibition of the TEC-family protein tyrosine kinase tec-1 increases the regeneration of neurons through enhancement of cell survival.

    YAP1 and TAZ negatively control bone angiogenesis by limiting hypoxia-inducible factor signaling in endothelial cells

    Kishor K Sivaraj, Backialakshmi Dharmalingam ... Ralf H Adams
    The interplay between the transcriptional co-regulators YAP1/TAZ and the hypoxia-controlled transcription factor HIF1α differentially regulates endothelial cell behavior in the hypoxic environment of bone compared to other organs.

    A stochastic framework of neurogenesis underlies the assembly of neocortical cytoarchitecture

    Alfredo Llorca, Gabriele Ciceri ... Oscar Marin
    The specification of a very small number of progenitor cells with competence to adapt their neurogenic output to different probabilistic rules underlies the generation of distinct cortical cytoarchitectures.
