Here, we identify a positive mechanical feedback loop between cell migration and IF relocalization and find that it promotes embryonic axis formation during zebrafish gastrulation. We show that anterior axial mesendoderm (prechordal plate [ppl]) cells, moving in between the yolk cell and deep cell tissue to extend the embryonic axis, compress the overlying deep cell layer, thereby causing IF to flow from the deep cell layer to the boundary between the yolk cell and the deep cell layer, directly ahead of the advancing ppl. This IF relocalization, in turn, facilitates ppl cell protrusion formation and migration by opening up the space into which the ppl moves and, thereby, the ability of the ppl to trigger IF relocalization by pushing against the overlying deep cell layer. Thus, embryonic axis formation relies on a hydraulic feedback loop between cell migration and IF relocalization.","lang":"eng"}],"external_id":{"pmid":["36931269"],"isi":["000982111800001"]},"type":"journal_article","quality_controlled":"1","pmid":1,"tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"corr_author":"1","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","publisher":"Elsevier","volume":58,"author":[{"full_name":"Huljev, Karla","last_name":"Huljev","id":"44C6F6A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Karla"},{"id":"40B34FE2-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Shayan","full_name":"Shamipour, Shayan","last_name":"Shamipour"},{"last_name":"Nunes Pinheiro","full_name":"Nunes Pinheiro, Diana C","orcid":"0000-0003-4333-7503","first_name":"Diana C","id":"2E839F16-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"full_name":"Preusser, Friedrich","last_name":"Preusser","first_name":"Friedrich"},{"id":"2705C766-9FE2-11EA-B224-C6773DDC885E","first_name":"Irene","last_name":"Steccari","full_name":"Steccari, Irene"},{"first_name":"Christoph M","id":"4DF26D8C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","orcid":"0000-0003-1216-9105","last_name":"Sommer","full_name":"Sommer, Christoph M"},{"id":"2C0B105C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Suyash","orcid":"0000-0001-8421-5508","last_name":"Naik","full_name":"Naik, Suyash"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-0912-4566","first_name":"Carl-Philipp J","id":"39427864-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Heisenberg","full_name":"Heisenberg, Carl-Philipp J"}],"project":[{"name":"Interaction and feedback between cell mechanics and fate specification in vertebrate gastrulation","_id":"260F1432-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","call_identifier":"H2020","grant_number":"742573"},{"_id":"26520D1E-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"ALTF 850-2017","name":"Coordination of mesendoderm cell fate specification and internalization during zebrafish gastrulation"},{"name":"Coordination of mesendoderm fate specification and internalization during zebrafish gastrulation","grant_number":"LT000429","_id":"266BC5CE-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425"}],"article_type":"original","department":[{"_id":"CaHe"},{"_id":"Bio"}],"month":"04","acknowledgement":"We thank Andrea Pauli (IMP) and Edouard Hannezo (ISTA) for fruitful discussions and support with the SPIM experiments; the Heisenberg group, and especially Feyza Nur Arslan and Alexandra Schauer, for discussions and feedback; Michaela Jović (ISTA) for help with the quantitative real-time PCR protocol; the bioimaging and zebrafish facilities of ISTA for continuous support; Stephan Preibisch (Janelia Research Campus) for support with the SPIM data analysis; and Nobuhiro Nakamura (Tokyo Institute of Technology) for sharing α1-Na+/K+-ATPase antibody.

However, how these processes are coordinated, and how tissue patterning is preserved despite the cellular flows occurring during morphogenesis, remains poorly understood. Gastrulation is a crucial embryonic stage that involves both patterning and internalization of the mesendoderm germ layer tissue. Here we show that, in zebrafish embryos, a gradient in Nodal signalling orchestrates pattern-preserving internalization movements by triggering a motility-driven unjamming transition. In addition to its role as a morphogen determining embryo patterning, graded Nodal signalling mechanically subdivides the mesendoderm into a small fraction of highly protrusive leader cells, able to autonomously internalize via local unjamming, and less protrusive followers, which need to be pulled inwards by the leaders. The Nodal gradient further enforces a code of preferential adhesion coupling leaders to their immediate followers, resulting in a collective and ordered mode of internalization that preserves mesendoderm patterning. Integrating this dual mechanical role of Nodal signalling into minimal active particle simulations quantitatively predicts both physiological and experimentally perturbed internalization movements. This provides a quantitative framework for how a morphogen-encoded unjamming transition can bidirectionally couple tissue mechanics with patterning during complex three-dimensional morphogenesis."}],"quality_controlled":"1","type":"journal_article","citation":{"chicago":"Nunes Pinheiro, Diana C, Roland Kardos, Edouard B Hannezo, and Carl-Philipp J Heisenberg. “Morphogen Gradient Orchestrates Pattern-Preserving Tissue Morphogenesis via Motility-Driven Unjamming.” <i>Nature Physics</i>.

Yet, it is unclear how to reconcile this remarkable self-organization capacity with classical experiments demonstrating key roles for extrinsic biases by maternal factors and/or extraembryonic tissues in embryogenesis. Here, we show that zebrafish embryonic tissue explants, prepared prior to germ layer induction and lacking extraembryonic tissues, can specify all germ layers and form a seemingly complete mesendoderm anlage. Importantly, explant organization requires polarized inheritance of maternal factors from dorsal-marginal regions of the blastoderm. Moreover, induction of endoderm and head-mesoderm, which require peak Nodal-signaling levels, is highly variable in explants, reminiscent of embryos with reduced Nodal signals from the extraembryonic tissues. Together, these data suggest that zebrafish explants do not undergo bona fide self-organization, but rather display features of genetically encoded self-assembly, where intrinsic genetic programs control the emergence of order.","lang":"eng"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"quality_controlled":"1","type":"journal_article"},{"oa_version":"Published Version","OA_type":"free access","title":"Mechanical force-driven adherents junction remodeling and epithelial dynamics","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:44:23Z","publist_id":"8000","publication_status":"published","publisher":"Cell Press","article_processing_charge":"No","acknowledgement":"Research in the Bellaïche laboratory is supported by the European Research Council (ERC Advanced, TiMoprh, 340784), the Fondation ARC pour la Recherche sur le Cancer (SL220130607097), the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR lLabex DEEP; 11-LBX-0044, ANR-10-IDEX-0001-02), the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, the Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale, and Institut Curie and PSL Research University funding or grants.","oa":1,"doi":"10.1016/j.devcel.2018.09.014","article_type":"review","department":[{"_id":"CaHe"}],"month":"10","volume":47,"author":[{"orcid":"0000-0003-4333-7503","first_name":"Diana C","id":"2E839F16-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Nunes Pinheiro, Diana C","last_name":"Nunes Pinheiro"},{"first_name":"Yohanns","full_name":"Bellaïche, Yohanns","last_name":"Bellaïche"}],"year":"2018","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","intvolume":"        47","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.devcel.2018.09.014","open_access":"1"}],"date_published":"2018-10-08T00:00:00Z","type":"journal_article","quality_controlled":"1","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"_id":"54","abstract":[{"text":"During epithelial tissue development, repair, and homeostasis, adherens junctions (AJs) ensure intercellular adhesion and tissue integrity while allowing for cell and tissue dynamics.

Recent findings highlight that beyond a well-established role in reinforcing cell-cell adhesion, AJ mechanosensitivity promotes junctional remodeling and polarization, thereby regulating critical processes such as cell intercalation, division, and collective migration. Here, we provide an integrated view of mechanosensing mechanisms that regulate cell-cell contact composition, geometry, and integrity under tension and highlight pivotal roles for mechanosensitive AJ remodeling in preserving epithelial integrity and sustaining tissue dynamics.","lang":"eng"}],"external_id":{"isi":["000446579900002"]},"day":"08","citation":{"ieee":"D.
