New Preprint Alert! We combined microfluidics, proteomics, and RNA-seqto map spatiotemporal protein expression during mouse somitogenesisand found a novel regulatory strategy: dynamic antagonistic gradients fine-tune signalling strength. https://t.co/a3NR1QC7MJ

Congrats Haillot & the whole @UlrichTechnau @TechnauLab! Another brilliant example of how we shouldn't assume simplicity in non-bilaterian animals. Triploblasty’s roots seem to run older than we thought! Nice to see a crosstalk between MAPK, β-catenin & Notch to define germ cell

It is out now with some interesting revision results:

Nature - Directional, non-vesicular lipid transport is responsible for fast, species-selective lipid sorting into organelle membranes.
Here’s the big one: In collaboration with @Honigmann_Lab, @LabShevchenko, Björn Drobot and Martin Hof we present a general workflow for imaging the localization and transport of individual lipids in cells and mapping their metabolism. https://t.co/uotVrHnbsK

🚨Preprint alert!🚨What happens to our blood vessels as we age? To begin answering this at the transcriptome level, we built the Human Aging Endothelial Cell Atlas (HAECA), profiling >375,000 endothelial cells from 12 tissues across adulthood. (1/9) https://t.co/6JXxOtPqC7.

Endothelial cells (ECs) are critical regulators of vascular function and exhibit specialized, organ-specific roles across tissues. During aging, these cells become dysfunctional, resulting in...

How do embryos ensure precise tissue patterning? It’s all about timing cell divisions! Our new preprint reveals how cell proliferation syncs with signalling oscillations to regulate precision of somite formation and growth. Check the full story: https://t.co/ZBxdOXbXGB

I am very excited to share our most recent work on how ‘Cell heterogeneity and fate bistability drive tissue patterning during intestinal regeneration’ ☺️ Thanks a lot to @Silvia_Bar01 @d_brueckner @prisca @EdouardHannezo and all the co-authors!
A perfect start in the new year! 🌱 Regenerating tissues are just an amazing spatio temporal controlled process! Our new manuscript explores how cell heterogeneity and bistability orchestrate intestinal regeneration 🧵 https://t.co/TZaK4D2isb

Researchers from the @TheCleversLab developed a method to grow organoids using a bacterial protein: Invasin. The study, published today in @PNASNews, shows that Invasin offers a sustainable, affordable and animal-free alternative to current methods. https://t.co/16auPZDk8J
