Endocardial id2b integrates biomechanical cues to orchestrate valve formation and myocardial maturation during cardiac development.

Analyses of zebrafish meioc mutants revealed that spermatogonial stem cells with low rRNA transcription caused by nucleolar Piwil1 require Meioc to keep Piwil1 in cytoplasm for the upregulation of rRNA transcription necessary for differentiation.

Formation of specialized ribbon synapses in sensory hair cells involves dynamic precursor movement, microtubule-guided transport, and precursor fusion, culminating in synapse assembly essential for hearing and balance.

Stochastic intrinsic fate decisions by planarian stem cells drive clonal expansion and reveal a straightforward, feedback‐independent mechanism for robust cell identity selection.

A stable microtubule network and kinesin motors facilitate the formation of presynaptic ribbons in sensory hair cells in the zebrafish lateral line.

Pu.1-P53 axis controls the turnover and maintenance of microglia by cell competition.

Sakura is expressed in female germlines, interacts with Otu, and is crucial for germline stem cell renewal and differentiation and oogenesis in Drosophila.
