Generic comparison of lumen nucleation and fusion in epithelial organoids with and without hydrostatic pressure

The paper compares lumen nucleation and fusion dynamics in three epithelial organoid systems under varying hydrostatic pressure conditions, revealing conserved self-organisation rules.

Assembly of tight junction belts by surface condensation and actin elongation

The paper investigates how surface phase transitions control protein condensation to form tight junction belts through ZO-scaffold proteins and actin polymerization.

Tight junctions regulate lumen morphology via hydrostatic pressure and junctional tension

This study investigates how tight junctions regulate lumen morphology through hydrostatic pressure and junctional tension in MDCKII cysts.

Polarity-driven three-dimensional spontaneous rotation of a cell doublet

This study investigates how myosin polarity drives spontaneous 3D rotation in cell doublets embedded in an extracellular matrix.

Wetting of junctional condensates along the apical interface promotes tight junction belt formation

The paper shows that PATJ-mediated wetting of junctional condensates at the apical membrane drives the formation of tight junction belts.

Optimization of mouse embryonic stem cell culture for organoid and chimeric mice production.

This study compares four mESC culture conditions, finding that CHIR99021/LIF suspension culture best balances effort, pluripotency, and homogeneity for organoid and chimeric mouse production.

Phase separation of zonula occludens proteins drives formation of tight junctions

This study shows ZO proteins undergo phase separation to form tight junctions by creating membrane-bound compartments that organize junction components.
