Environment-specific mechanosensing preserves a common bleb-based migratory program across diverse embryonic environments

Manami Morimoto, Yasuhiro Kamei, Mizuki Morita, Junichi Ikenouchi, Yoshiki Hayashi, Daisuke Saito

The paper shows chick primordial germ cells use a common bleb-based migratory program across different embryonic environments, with distinct molecular mechanisms in each context.

Bleb-based extravasation: conserved morphodynamics, divergent calcium control

Mizuki Morita, Manami Morimoto, Junichi Ikenouchi, Bertrand Pain, Yuji Atsuta, Yoshiki Hayashi, Takayuki Teramoto, Daisuke Saito

The paper shows that all extravasating cells form Ca²⁺-dependent membrane blebs, but the source of Ca²⁺ varies by lineage, highlighting distinct regulatory mechanisms.

The SOCE system is critical for membrane bleb formation to drive avian primordial germ cell migration

Mizuki Morita, Manami Morimoto, Takayuki Teramoto, Junichi Ikenouchi, Yuji Atsuta, Daisuke Saito

The paper shows that SOCE-mediated Ca2+ elevation drives membrane bleb formation in avian PGCs, essential for in vivo migration.
