JAK/STAT controls organ size and fate specification by regulating morphogen production and signalling
Morphogens regulate growth and pattern in vertebrate and invertebrate limbs. Here, the authors show that the JAK/STAT pathway promotes the growth of the Hedgehog-producing cell population in theDrosophilawing, thereby allowing the stable localization of the BMP/Dpp organizer.
