Prostaglandin Gbetagamma signaling stimulates gastrulation movements by limiting cell adhesion through Snail stabilization

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) influences many processes in vertebrates, including development, homeostasis, and disease through its GPCRs EP receptors 1-4. PGE2 regulates gastrulation movements during zebrafish embryogenesis, but how it does so was previously unclear, as PGE2 can affect cell adhesion, mot...
