Long range mutual activation establishes Rho and Rac polarity during cell migration

Henry De Belly, Andreu F. Gallen, Evelyn Strickland, Dorothy C. Estrada, David Sanchez Godinez, Eric Neiva, Patrick J. Zager, Tamas L. Nagy, Janis K. Burkhardt, Hervé Turlier, Orion David Weiner

The paper reveals a long-range mutual activation mechanism between Rho and Rac GTPases that establishes polarity during cell migration, conserved in epithelial cells and essential for T cell migration.

Mechanics of human embryo compaction

Julie Firmin, Nicolas Ecker, Diane Rivet-Danon, Özge Özgüç, Virginie Barraud‐Lange, Hervé Turlier, Catherine Patrat, Jean‐Léon Maître

This study maps cell surface tensions during human embryo compaction and identifies contractility as the key driver of the mechanical forces involved.

Fracking and Ostwald ripening position the lumen of the mouse blastocyst

Julien G. Dumortier, Mathieu Le Verge-Serandour, Anna Francesca Tortorelli, Annette Mielke, Ludmilla de Plater, Hervé Turlier, Jean‐Léon Maître

This study identifies hydraulic fracture of cell-cell contacts and directed coarsening of microlumens as mechanisms controlling lumen positioning in mouse blastocysts.
