Growth compensation upon changes in tissue size in the Drosophila abdomen

Ana Ferreira, Andrea Cairoli, Federica Mangione, Maxine V. Holder, Anna P. Ainslie, Birgit L. Aerne, Guillaume Salbreux, Nicolas Tapon

This study shows that Drosophila histoblasts adjust their proliferation and growth dynamics to compensate for changes in starting tissue size during abdominal development.

ECM remodeling and spatial cell cycle coordination determine tissue growth kinetics

Anna P. Ainslie, John Robert Davis, John J. Williamson, Ana Ferreira, Alejandro Torres-Sànchez, Andreas Hoppe, Federica Mangione, Matthew B. Smith, Enrique Martı́n-Blanco, Guillaume Salbreux, Nicolas Tapon

The paper shows that tissue growth in Drosophila abdomen stops due to rapid cell cycle arrest, not gradual slowing, and that ECM remodeling is required for expansion.
