This study shows laminin and fibronectin guide endothelial self-organization during intersegmental vessel formation in zebrafish by constraining network-forming behavior.

The paper models cell alignment with collagen fibrils using a hybrid model showing mechanosensitive focal adhesions drive ECM-dependent cell elongation.

The paper uses quantitative modeling to investigate fate specification in the C. elegans postembryonic M lineage and identifies potential missing spatiotemporal signals.

This study combines computational modeling and in vivo experiments to show that thymic niche alterations synergize with genetic mutations to drive rapid T-ALL progression in medaka.

The paper introduces the Medaka Inbred Kiyosu-Karlsruhe (MIKK) panel, a vertebrate genetic resource for genotype-to-phenotype studies, enabling controlled experiments on complex traits.

The paper analyzes genomic and epigenomic variation in the MIKK panel using long-read sequencing and pan-genome graphs, revealing novel structural variants and methylation patterns.

This study identifies tbx5a as essential for cardiac looping in zebrafish, showing that heart tube twisting depends on intrinsic tissue patterning and is independent of cell addition.

The paper shows retinal stem cells in fish coordinate post-embryonic eye growth by modulating cell division parameters between neural retina and retinal pigmented epithelium.

The paper demonstrates that modifying the 5' ends of long dsDNA donors enhances HDR efficiency in Medaka, enabling efficient single-copy integration through monomeric donor conformation.
