    Planar cell polarity signaling coordinates oriented cell division and cell rearrangement in clonally expanding growth plate cartilage

    Yuwei Li, Ang Li ... Marianne Bronner
    Through the interaction between PCP signaling and N-cadherin, oriented cell division and cell rearrangement are coordinated to establish the appropriate tissue architecture critical for limb skeletal morphogenesis.

    Molecular architecture underlying fluid absorption by the developing inner ear

    Keiji Honda, Sung Huhn Kim ... Andrew J Griffith
    Genome-wide RNA-seq analysis of single cells of the developing mouse endolymphatic sac reveals its molecular-cellular architecture and a model for salt and fluid absorption required for acquisition of normal inner ear structure and function.

    A tissue-specific, Gata6-driven transcriptional program instructs remodeling of the mature arterial tree

    Marta Losa, Victor Latorre ... Nicoletta Bobola
    The transcription factor GATA6 selects the embryonic vessels that will be reorganized into the major thoracic arteries by promoting local differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells.

    Concentration dependent chromatin states induced by the bicoid morphogen gradient

    Colleen E Hannon, Shelby A Blythe, Eric F Wieschaus
    Interplay between protein concentration, DNA binding and remodeling of the chromatin landscape in early embryogenesis determines how a single transcription factor can specify multiple distinct gene expression states.

    lncRNA requirements for mouse acute myeloid leukemia and normal differentiation

    M Joaquina Delás, Leah R Sabin ... Gregory J Hannon
    A comprehensive analysis of long noncoding RNAs in the hematopoietic system reveals their dynamic regulation and a loss-of-function screen identifies some required for leukemia progression and involved in normal myeloid differentiation.

    Cell type boundaries organize plant development

    Monica Pia Caggiano, Xiulian Yu ... Marcus G Heisler
    Leaf position, shape and orientation are pre-patterned by cell type boundaries in the shoot meristem.

    A multi-scale model for hair follicles reveals heterogeneous domains driving rapid spatiotemporal hair growth patterning

    Qixuan Wang, Ji Won Oh ... Maksim V Plikus
    Regional differences in activator and inhibitor signals alter hair cycle pace across mouse skin and produce unique fur renewal 'landscapes', with fastest renewal on the ventrum and slowest renewal on the ear pinnae.

    Notch/Her12 signalling modulates, motile/immotile cilia ratio downstream of Foxj1a in zebrafish left-right organizer

    Barbara Tavares, Raquel Jacinto ... Susana Santos Lopes
    Foxj1a makes cilia ultrastructurally motile, while Notch signalling stops cilia movement in Kupffer's vesicle.

    Transient hypothyroidism favors oligodendrocyte generation providing functional remyelination in the adult mouse brain

    Sylvie Remaud, Fernando C Ortiz ... Barbara Demeneix
    Production of remyelinating subventricular zone oligodendrocyte progenitors is stimulated by transient abrogation of thyroid hormone signalling in the adult neural stem cell niche.

    A transgenic toolkit for visualizing and perturbing microtubules reveals unexpected functions in the epidermis

    Andrew Muroyama, Terry Lechler
    The dynamics and functions of epidermal microtubules are revealed through the use of transgenic tools to image and perturb microtubule arrays.
