Specification of leading and trailing cell features during collective migration in the Drosophila trachea.

Journal of cell science - 15 Jan 2014

Lebreton Gaëlle, Casanova Jordi

Abstract excerpt

The role of tip and rear cells in collective migration is still a matter of debate and their differences at the cytoskeletal level are poorly understood. Here, we analysed these issues in the Drosophila trachea, an organ that develops from the collective migration of clusters of cells that respond to Branchless (Bnl), a fibroblast growth factor (FGF) homologue expressed in surrounding tissues. We track individual...
