A conserved regulation of cell expansion underlies notochord mechanics, spine morphogenesis, and endochondral bone lengthening
2024-08-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Cell size is a key contributor to tissue morphogenesis 1 . As a notable example, growth plate hypertrophic chondrocytes use cellular biogenesis and disproportionate fluid uptake to expand 10-20 times in size to drive lengthening of endochondral bone 2,3 . Similarly, notochordal cells expand to one of the largest cell types in the developing embryo to drive axial extension 4–6 . In zebrafish, t...
