What did advanced microscopists do to our point of view?

🎓 Dr. Hooglugt!

On October 23rd, Aukie successfully defended his PhD thesis, “Balancing forces: endothelial mechanobiology in vascular dynamics and disease.

A huge congratulations from a proud team of supervisors @reinierboon.bsky.social, @huveneerslab.bsky.social & Dr. van der Stoel.

Is endothelium a type of epithelium?

I am @icfortunato.bsky.social & I would like to discuss this with a short🧵 focused on cell-cell junctions, specifically adherens junctions.

This still is one of our favourite experiments!
In 2012, @huveneerslab.bsky.social et al. show 2 states of AJs in endothelial cells: stable and remodeling.

Stable state ➡️ actin cables parallel to the junctions & have low force.

Remodeling state ➡️ actin cables perpendicular to the junctions & have high force.
