The paper shows integrins 3 and 6, along with laminin 5, coordinate epithelial collective migration in zebrafish pLLP by maintaining basement membrane integrity and regulating protrusive activity.

This study shows Vgll4 proteins regulate zebrafish organ size by both enhancing and limiting Yap1 activity in the posterior lateral line primordium.

This study shows that mannose is essential for mesoderm specification in gastruloids, while the glycolytic pathway is not required for early T/Bra expression.

This study shows that IFT complex B proteins modulate YAP1 activity during cardiogenesis in zebrafish and mouse, linking cilia-related proteins to Hippo pathway regulation.

The paper shows that zebrafish embryos can break symmetry autonomously when isolated, indicating that extra-embryonic tissues are not strictly required for early patterning.

The paper shows that Yap/Taz-TEAD activity mediates mechanical signal sensing in hindbrain boundary cells, linking mechanical cues to progenitor behavior and cell fate changes.

This study identifies Taz as essential for micropylar cell specification and micropyle formation in zebrafish through genetic and molecular analysis.
