A non-invasive approach to study localized forced in 3D epithelia

This paper introduces a non-invasive method to study localized mechanical forces in 3D epithelial tissues using elastic microbeads and shows how cytoskeletal remodeling and adhesion organization respond to mechanical perturbations.

A multicellular actin star network underpins epithelial organization and connectivity

This study identifies a multicellular actin star network in adult murine intestinal epithelium that maintains tissue stability and organization through mechanical and structural mechanisms.

Lrrcc1 and Ccdc61 are conserved effectors of multiciliated cell function

This study identifies Lrrcc1 and Ccdc61 as essential components of basal bodies in multiciliated cells, showing their role in ciliary function and fluid flow in Xenopus embryos.
