Defects in the shape of somatic clones correlate with defects in proliferation, cell affinity, cell - cell adhesion,
oriented cell division and cortical contractility.
We study how
oriented cell division contributes to skull growth and how this process is regulated genetically.
Oriented cell division is used throughout embryonic development and adult homeostasis to shape and pattern tissues.
Not exact matches
This
division can be
oriented, daughter
cells can be pushed inside or outside as result of the mitotic spindle orientation, and asymmetric, daughter
cells can acquire distinct components giving them different contractile properties.
