Actin polymerization drives lumen formation in a human epiblast model
2023-04-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Lumens or fluid-filled cavities are a ubiquitous feature of mammals and are often evolutionarily linked to the origin of body-plan complexity. Post-implantation, the pluripotent epiblast in a human embryo forms a central lumen, paving the way for gastrulation. While osmotic pressure gradients drive lumen formation in many developmental contexts, mechanisms of human epiblast lumenogenesis are unkn...
