The paper identifies inverse blebs as hydraulic pumps that facilitate fluid redistribution during mouse blastocyst lumen formation.

The paper shows that topological spindle-spindle interactions, not internuclear distance, control spindle orientation and nuclear fate in Drosophila embryos.

The paper shows that hydraulic instability in C. elegans germ cells leads to cell death by causing volume differences and extrusion of shrinking cells.

The paper shows that during insect gastrulation, regionalized tissue fluidization by an actomyosin cable enables epithelial gap closure through cell intercalation and tension release.
