Journal ArticleDOI
LvNotch signaling mediates secondary mesenchyme specification in the sea urchin embryo
TL;DR: Results offer compelling evidence that LvNotch signaling directly specifies the SMC fate, and that this signaling is critical for the differential specification of SMCs and endoderm in the sea urchin embryo.
Journal ArticleDOI
FOS-1 Promotes Basement-Membrane Removal during Anchor-Cell Invasion in C. elegans
TL;DR: ZMP-1, a membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase, CDH-3, a Fat-like protocadherin, and hemicentin, a fibulin family extracellular matrix protein, are identified as transcriptional targets of FOS-1 that promote invasion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anchor cell invasion into the vulval epithelium in C. elegans.
TL;DR: The regulatory mechanisms that underlie a simple cell-invasive behavior in vivo are dissected, and AC invasion is introduced as a model for understanding key checkpoints controlling cell invasion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Traversing the basement membrane in vivo: A diversity of strategies
TL;DR: In vivo studies have uncovered a remarkably diverse range of cellular- and tissue-level strategies beyond proteolysis that cells use to navigate through the basement membrane, and increased understanding of how cells cross this matrix barrier in physiological and disease settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
UNC-6 (netrin) orients the invasive membrane of the anchor cell in C. elegans.
TL;DR: Using the genetically and visually tractable model of Caenorhabditis elegans anchor cell (AC) invasion, it is shown that UNC-6 (netrin) signalling, a pathway not previously implicated in controlling cell invasion in vivo, is a key regulator of this process.
