The Wurst protein: a novel endocytosis regulator involved in airway clearance and respiratory tube size control.

Cell adhesion & migration - 1 Jan 2000

Wingen Christian, Aschenbrenner Anna C, Stümpges Birgit, Hoch Michael, Behr Matthias

Abstract excerpt

The mammalian lung and the Drosophila airways are composed of an intricate network of epithelial tubes that transports fluids or gases and converts during late embryogenesis from liquid- to air-filling. Conserved growth factor pathways have been characterized in model organisms such as Drosophila or the mouse that control patterning and branching of tubular networks. In contrast, knowledge of the coordination of...
