Summary

Differentiation in the Drosophila eye imaginal disc traverses the disc as a wave moving from posterior to anterior. The propagation of this wave is driven by hedgehog protein secreted by the differentiated cells in the posterior region of the disc. Hedgehog induces decapentaplegic expression at the front of differentiation, in the morphogenetic furrow. We have identified a gene, shortsighted, which is expressed in a hedgehog-dependent stripe in the undifferentiated cells just anterior to the furrow and which appears to be involved in the transmission of the differentiation-inducing signal; a reduction in shortsighted function leads to a delay in differentiation and to a loss of photoreceptors in the adult. shortsighted is also required for a morphogenetic movement in the brain that reorients the second optic lobe relative to the first. shortsighted encodes a cytoplasmic leucine zipper protein with homology to a mouse gene, TSC-22, which is transcriptionally induced in response to TGF-beta.

Protein function can be controlled by light using optogenetic techniques. In their new Primer, Stefano De Renzis and his colleagues in Heidelberg provide an overview of the most commonly used optogenetic tools and their application in developmental biology.


preLights – Self-organised symmetry breaking in zebrafish reveals feedback from morphogenesis to pattern formation

Sundar Naganathan

preLighter Sundar Naganathan explains his selected preprint by Vikas Trivedi, Benjamin Steventon and their co-workers on pescoids, a new in vitro model system to study early zebrafish embryogenesis.


Spotlight – Can laboratory model systems instruct human limb regeneration?

An extract from a schematic demonstrating the possible pipeline for how discovery in lab model systems can influence applications for regenerative therapies.

One of the most challenging objectives of tissue regeneration research is regrowth of a lost or amputated limb. Here, Ben Cox, Maximina Yun and Kenneth Poss outline the research avenues yet to be explored to move closer to this capstone achievement.
