Fluid extraction from the left-right organizer uncovers mechanical properties needed for symmetry breaking
2022-04-22
Abstract excerpt
Humans and other vertebrates define body axis left-right asymmetry in the early stages of embryo development (Shiratori and Hamada, 2006). The mechanism behind left-right establishment is not fully understood (Mizuno et al ., 2020; Maerker et al ., 2021; Minegishi et al ., 2021). Symmetry breaking occurs in a dedicated organ called the left-right organizer (LRO) and involves motile cilia generating fluid-flow t...
