Long-range chemical signalling in vivo is regulated by mechanical signals

Eva K. Pillai, Sudipta Mukherjee, Niklas Gampl…·Kristian Franze

The paper shows that mechanical signals regulate long-range chemical signaling in the developing Xenopus brain by modulating tissue stiffness and expression of guidance cues.

Simultaneous in vivo time-lapse stiffness mapping and fluorescence imaging of developing tissue

Amelia J. Thompson, Eva K. Pillai, Ivan B. Dimov…·Kristian Franze

This study uses tiv-AFM to show that in vivo tissue stiffness gradients in Xenopus brain development are driven by differential cell proliferation and guide axon growth.
