TGF-beta signaling regulates epithelial permeability in Drosophila ovaries by modulating adhesion independent of actomyosin contractility

Harshath Amal, Thea Jacobs, Max Lohrberg, Stefan Luschnig

This study shows TGF-beta signaling suppresses epithelial permeability in Drosophila ovaries by enhancing E-Cadherin adhesion, independent of actomyosin contractility.

Rho/Rok-dependent regulation of actomyosin contractility at tricellular junctions restricts epithelial permeability in Drosophila

Thea Jacobs, Jone Isasti Sanchez, Steven Reger, Stefan Luschnig

The paper shows that Rho/Rok-dependent regulation of actomyosin contractility at tricellular junctions controls epithelial permeability in Drosophila by modulating vertex tension.

Src42A is required for E-cadherin dynamics at cell junctions during Drosophila axis elongation

Lenin Chandran, Wilko Backer, Raphael Schleutker, Deqing Kong, Seyed Amir Hamze Beati, Stefan Luschnig, H.‐Arno J. Müller

This study investigates the role of Src42A in E-cadherin dynamics during Drosophila axis elongation, showing its requirement for junction contraction and planar polarity.

Tracheal tube fusion in Drosophila involves release of extracellular vesicles from multivesicular bodies

Carolina Camelo, Anna Körte, Thea Jacobs, Stefan Luschnig

The paper identifies Stac-positive extracellular vesicles derived from multivesicular bodies that mediate tracheal tube fusion in Drosophila embryos through the action of Arl3, Rab27, and Rab35.

Transient opening of tricellular vertices controls paracellular transport through the follicle epithelium during Drosophila oogenesis

Jone Isasti Sanchez, Fenja Münz-Zeise, Mylène Lancino, Stefan Luschnig

The paper shows that transient opening of tricellular vertices in Drosophila follicle epithelium allows paracellular transport of yolk proteins during oogenesis, regulated by adhesion and actomyosin dynamics.

Smg5 is required for multiple nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathways in Drosophila

Jonathan O. Nelson, Dominique Förster, Kimberly Frizzell, Stefan Luschnig, Mark M. Metzstein

This study shows Smg5 is essential for NMD in Drosophila, participating in two decay mechanisms and compensating for Smg1's reduced role when Smg5 is compromised.
