text: Visualizing and analyzing shape changes at various scales, ranging from single
molecules to whole organisms, are essential for understanding complex morphogenetic
processes, such as early embryonic development. Embryo morphogenesis relies on
the interplay between different tissues, the properties of which are again determined
by the interaction between their constituent cells. Cell interactions, on the
other hand, are controlled by various molecules, such as signaling and adhesion
molecules, which in order to exert their functions need to be spatiotemporally
organized within and between the interacting cells. In this review, we will focus
on the role of cell adhesion functioning at different scales to organize cell,
tissue and embryo morphogenesis. We will specifically ask how the subcellular
distribution of adhesion molecules controls the formation of cell-cell contacts,
how cell-cell contacts determine tissue shape, and how tissue interactions regulate
embryo morphogenesis.
