第191回 アイセムスセミナー: Pierre-François Lenne 教授

Cell-generated forces produce a variety of tissue movements and tissue shape changes. How such forces are transmitted through cell contacts and how they integrate to induce deformation at the tissue level are key questions to understand how tissues acquire their shapes. Using quantitative imaging and force measurements in vivo, we study how subcellular tensile forces drive remodeling of cell contacts and tissue elongation in the Drosophila embryo. We will present our recent attempts to directly measure the mechanics of cell contacts in vivo and to delineate the role of internal and external forces in this process.
