Neuronal migration prevents spatial competition in retinal morphogenesis

The concomitant occurrence of tissue growth and organization is a hallmark of organismal development(1-3). This often means that proliferating and differentiating cells are found at the same time in a continuously changing tissue environment. How cells ada ...

Phenotypic plasticity versus ecotypic differentiation under recurrent summer drought in two drought-tolerant pine species

Christoph Bachofen

Despite worldwide reports of high tree mortality, growing evidence indicates that many tree species are well adapted to survive repeated dry spells. The drought resilience of trees is related to their phenotypic plasticity and ecotypic differentiation. Whe ...

Defect Suppression in Oriented 2D Perovskite Solar Cells with Efficiency over 18% via Rerouting Crystallization Pathway

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Yong Ding, Olga Syzgantseva, Xuehui Liu, Cheng Liu

Vertically oriented 2D perovskites exhibit promising optoelectronic properties and intrinsic stability, but their photovoltaic application is still limited by the low power conversion efficiency (PCE) compared to 3D analogs. Here, a new crystallization pat ...

Foliar respiration is related to photosynthetic, growth and carbohydrate response to experimental drought and elevated temperature

Charlotte Grossiord

Short-term plant respiration (R) increases exponentially with rising temperature, but drought could reduce respiration by reducing growth and metabolism. Acclimation may alter these responses. We examined if species with different drought responses would d ...

Ubiquitous macropinocytosis in anthozoans

Gaëlle Delphine Toullec

Transport of fluids, molecules, nutrients or nanoparticles through coral tissues are poorly documented. Here, we followed the flow of various tracers from the external seawater to within the cells of all tissues in living animals. After entering the genera ...

An Amidase_3 domain-containing N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase is required for mycobacterial cell division

Neeraj Dhar, Ashima Bhaskar, Dong Li

Mycobacteria possess a multi-layered cell wall that requires extensive remodelling during cell division. We investigated the role of an amidase_3 domain-containing N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine amidase, a peptidoglycan remodelling enzyme implicated in cell div ...

Progesterone and Wnt4 control mammary stem cells via myoepithelial crosstalk

Cathrin Brisken, Jacques Rougemont, Ayyakkannu Ayyanan, Marian Caikovski, Renuga Devi Rajaram, Duje Buric

Ovarian hormones increase breast cancer risk by poorly understood mechanisms. We assess the role of progesterone on global stem cell function by serially transplanting mouse mammary epithelia. Progesterone receptor (PR) deletion severely reduces the regene ...

Phytochrome interacting factors 4 and 5 control seedling growth in changing light conditions by directly controlling auxin signaling

Jacques Rougemont, Ioannis Xenarios, Christian Fankhauser

Plant growth is strongly influenced by the presence of neighbors that compete for light resources. In response to vegetational shading shade-intolerant plants such as Arabidopsis display a suite of developmental responses known as the shade-avoidance syndr ...

Over-expression of PHO1 in Arabidopsis leaves reveals its role in mediating phosphate efflux

Michaël Bensimon, Charles Vidoudez

P>Inorganic phosphate (Pi) homeostasis in multi-cellular eukaryotes depends not only on Pi influx into cells, but also on Pi efflux. Examples in plants for which Pi efflux is crucial are transfer of Pi into the xylem of roots and release of Pi at the peri- ...

Amphiregulin is an essential mediator of estrogen receptor alpha function in mammary gland development

Cathrin Brisken

Most mammary gland development occurs after birth under the control of systemic hormones. Estrogens induce mammary epithelial cell proliferation during puberty via epithelial estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) by a paracrine mechanism. Epidermal growth fact ...
