Motile cilia spin the Reissner fiber, a tensioned and anchored extracellular thread essential for body morphogenesis

Elizabeth A. Bearce, Samuel G. Bertrand, Samara E. Williams, Sophie I Fisher, Adamend L. Freda, Zoe H. Irons, Calvin N. Chmelir, Daniel T. Grimes

The paper shows that motile cilia remodel Sspo into a tensioned Reissner fiber anchored to the floor plate, linking ciliary activity to body morphogenesis.

Urotensin II-Related Peptides, Urp1 and Urp2, Control Zebrafish Spine Morphology

Elizabeth A. Bearce, Zoe H. Irons, Johnathan R. O’Hara-Smith, Colin J. Kuhns, Sophie I Fisher, William E. Crow, Daniel T. Grimes

This study identifies Urp1 and Urp2 as essential for zebrafish spine morphology, showing their role in preventing lordosis-like curves and establishing new models for spinal curvature disorders.
