MDCK in collagen forms a polarized cyst - how? Gp135 = apical, red b-catenin = basolateral, green From Zegers et al, 03
Drive for three surfaces model - epithelial cells try to establish apical, lateral, and basal domains From Zegers et al, 03
MDCK cyst formation requires Rac for proper orientation of polarity +dnRAC +dnRAC +Laminin From Zegers et al, 03
Differential Regulation of Junctional Proteins During Tubulogenesis (same paper) Adherens junctions (E-cadherin) move around, and new ones are made ZO-1, a tight junction protein, is between apical and basolateral domains, and during extension is at cell-cell contact points Desmosome components dpI/II are in large intracellular pools during tubulogenesis

Model of the FGF signaling Pathway in the Control of Cell Migration in Drosophila. Bnl: Branchless Btl: Breathless Dof: Downstream of FGF, Stumps Csw: Corkscrew(phosphatase) HSPG: heparan sulfate proteoglycan Petit V, Affolter M
Steps of Tracheal Tube Formation • Tracheal sac formation • Specification of tracheal cells (tracheal placodes) • Invagination of the tracheal placode • General branch outgrowth via FGF signaling • Branch-specific outgrowth is controlled by regional signals and branch identity genes • Branch identity dentermination • DB migration requires Dpp signaling • GB migration requires slit-robo signaling • Tube elongation through cell intercalation • Determination and differentiation of distinct cell types (fusion cell, terminal cell) • Fusion process • Terminal branching
