The paper studies cell rearrangements along the apical-basal axis in Drosophila germband epithelium, revealing gradients in cell shape and tissue structure and the involvement of both apical and basolateral domains.

This study investigates how E-cadherin-mediated adhesion affects mechanical behavior in Drosophila epithelial tissues before and during morphogenetic flows, revealing dual roles in tissue structure and dynamics.

The paper investigates how apical domain alterations in Xenopus neural plate cells drive tissue folding through mechanical interactions and PCP signaling.

This study shows that transfer learning from synthetic OCT image simulations improves classification of esophageal tissue in BE patients compared to models trained on clinical data with uncertain labels.
