EGF signalling regulates cell invagination as well as cell migration during formation of tracheal system in Drosophila.

Development genes and evolution - 1 Mar 1999

Llimargas M, Casanova J

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila tracheal system is a network of epithelial tubes that arises from the tracheal placodes, lateral clusters of ectodermal cells in ten embryonic segments. The cells of each cluster invaginate and subsequent formation of the tracheal tree occurs by cell migration and fusion of tracheal branches, without cell division. The combined action of the Decapentaplegic (Dpp), Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and...
