Dynamics of hydraulic and contractile wave-mediated fluid transport during <i>Drosophila</i> oogenesis
2020-06-17
Abstract excerpt
From insects to mice, oocytes develop within cysts alongside nurse-like sister germ cells. Prior to fertilization, the nurse cells’ cytoplasmic contents are transported into the oocyte, which grows as its sister cells regress and die. Although critical for fertility, the biological and physical mechanisms underlying this transport process are poorly understood. Here, we combined live imaging of germline cysts, gen...
