Extracellular matrix stiffness cues junctional remodeling for 3D tissue elongation
The extracellular matrix can shape developing organs, but how external forces direct intercellular morphogenesis is unclear. Here, the authors use 3D imaging to show that elongation of the Drosophila egg chamber involves polarized cell reorientation signalled by changes in stiffness of the surroundi...

The extracellular matrix can shape developing organs, but how external forces direct intercellular morphogenesis is unclear. Here, the authors use 3D imaging to show that elongation of the Drosophila egg chamber involves polarized cell reorientation signalled by changes in stiffness of the surrounding extracellular matrix. |
